Hi Onhell, thank you for joining us! Your recent release, juntos, emphasizes collaborative efforts with friends. What do you find most fulfilling about working together? Were there any standout moments during the creation of this EP?
I owe everything to my friends. I don’t have a traditional family, and they provide the love I need. Many of my music friends aren’t collaborators in the traditional sense; we often just enjoy each other’s company. But when we create together, and it resonates, it’s an incredible feeling. Their support helps me feel motivated, even during tough times.
Your fabulous parties promote safety and inclusivity, with one notable event at the iconic House of Yes in New York, a venue that inspired your journey. How was it seeing your vision come alive at such a significant location?
It felt surreal and rewarding. It’s like being inspired by a legend and then sharing a stage with them! I’m grateful that the House of Yes resonated with my vision and embraced it. My parties celebrate hot, fun, sexy queer culture, and if that’s not your vibe, then it’s probably not for you.
The word is out: you’ve featured in Ivy Lab’s Infinite Falling Ground Part II AV show. What was it like participating in such a highly anticipated project?
[Laughs] Honestly, I had no idea what I was getting into! My friend Gina, who was directing, invited me to be a chef in a scene. I showed up, only to find out I had to yell at the cast while holding Lake Hills’ baby. It was quite the comedic adventure for me—definitely unexpected!
Your entrepreneurial spirit shines through your diverse culinary creations and events, alongside your music endeavors. With so much going on, what new ventures do you plan to explore next?
I feel like I’m collecting all the infinity stones! Right now, I want to concentrate on my current projects. I’m excited about upcoming collaborations, potentially an album, and larger parties across the country. I want to make salsa a regular offering too. My goal is to get more organized—something I’m working on, especially since I manage everything on my own. I thrive on this chaos though; it’s just too much fun to slow down!
Looking back on your career, what legacy would you like to leave behind?
Honestly, I don’t dwell on such thoughts. I’m all about doing things and doing them well. It’s important to have values while making it enjoyable.
With juntos out now, are there any upcoming projects or collaborations you’re particularly looking forward to? What can fans expect from you soon?
I have collaborations with Hypho and Ooah from The Glitch Mob lined up next, along with a possible collaboration with Tsuruda. I’m eager to partner with more artists for collective parties as well. Stay tuned!
