staceyg5 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 would be interesting to see/hear. that place is already good on sunday mornings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digital7 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Well, there seems to be some kind of confusion I want to clear up. It's David Alvarado and Josh Winx that team up together at Twilo (NYC) on Saturday nights. George Alvarado was the creator of the "Midnight Laboratory" that was airing on Power 96. I believe that show is no longer on the air. David originally hails from the west coast and from my understanding is not related to each other, just wanted to clear it up.------------------Peace,DIGITAL 7"It's what you do, when you do it, and how well you do it."

x-t-c Posted February 16 Author Report Share Posted February 16 the show is still running...itz called the late nite labratory and it usually runs from 2-4 a.m on power 96, the only time i ever listen to the station...for those who have not heard it, give it a listen and i guarantee you wont regret it...------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolimit Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 then disregard my comment...george is a different story...(foot in my mouth)sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aztec-mystic Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Wow, George Alvarado, I remember when he used to play at Egoiste' on 4th and Collins . He really kicks ass on those power 96 shows..And he also is resident at 609 in the grove, and occasionally does guest spots at Alcazaba in the Gables when they have the Power 96 hot body contest..He knows how to mix it up really well too, he's great at various types of popular music and is great at reading crowds too. Looking forward to hearing some good Power 96 Trance alongside Padillas Trance sessions, they'll go together really well.. Does anyone know if "TUNE" will be broadcast live on Power 96?David Alvarado can't compare, he's just some old underground House DJ from LA with a global following, that mostly plays way too pumpin deep house vibes that nobody can recognize or sing along to, kinda like that guy Joshua Wink.

bbflux Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 I used to hear David Padilla spin at the Warsaw back in the early 90s. Those were some FIERCELY WILD parties back then. I mean WILD!!!!! Also, David could really do some damage on the turn tables back then. I haven't heard him spin in a few years because I've been away at school. He was spinning house back then, I hear he's turned to trance these days (which is cool as long as it's not being played on Power 96). I'd love to go check him out and say hello. Is he still cool? You know, popularity can change people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digital7 Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 test your luck, he isn't that personable.------------------Peace,DIGITAL 7"It's what you do, when you do it, and how well you do it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobeton Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 "he isn't that personable." That is interesting; I met David for the first time at Fuel, and he was quite friendly. David is very much a people’s DJ; he “feeds” off the vibe of the crowd. I can remember people including myself going crazy; when he spun at The Mix. The most recent time ;I heard him at Fuel; people were standing in front of the booth giving him “props”. Popularity has not changed him; he is still a humble person; who appreciates and acknowledges his fans…. BTW David will be spinning, on Fridays only at Fuel for after-hours. This is in addition to the new nite at Salvation called "Tune" starting March 2nd. I hope people will give him some support………..Peace,Sobeton [This message has been edited by sobeton (edited 02-22-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbflux Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 We he was never extremely friendly before either. He was dating someone I was very close to for a couple of years so I know first hand. Even in a personal setting like his home he wasn't exactly, outgoing. That was about four years ago, however. He could be different now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digital7 Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 yeah. (repeating myself) I introduced myself to him and he blew me off. Maybe he was having a bad day? who knows------------------Peace,DIGITAL 7"It's what you do, when you do it, and how well you do it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pod- Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 He has his ups and downs I've noticed. The first time I met him, he was the nicest person, the second time I met him he was a dork, the third time I ran into him he nearly killed me with a bear hug hello...Recently with his popularity he seems a bit standoffish but oh well, I really don't know him though so I can't pass judgement...

sobeton Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Bbflux > I believe your previous post stated “is he still cool ?”. One would assume from that statement; that you had previously met Padilla, and found him to be a cool person. Yet, you post again and state "he was never extremely friendly before either". Quite a contradiction; I would say. Since your only posts on this board have been in relation to Padilla. I am guessing you have some unresolved personal issues with Padilla. My hope is that you do not take this as a “flame”; as it is simply an observation on my part.Yes, I admit I am a very big fan of Padilla’s. From his days at Warsaw; to what I consider to be the pinnacle of his success The Mix. Padilla has been a part of the Miami Dance music scene for over ten years. You do not achieve the success, popularity; and longevity he has by being "unfriendly". Personally, I appreciate what Padilla puts forth… Padilla’s new gigs at "Tune" and Fuel after-hours will be a welcome addition to the scene.Peace,Sobeton [This message has been edited by sobeton (edited 02-22-2001).][This message has been edited by sobeton (edited 02-22-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbflux Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 I never said he wasn't a nice person. He was just never the warm and friendly type. Unresolved issues???????? *giggles*What I was really wondering, more importantly, was what kind of music he was spinning these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobeton Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 He has been spinning “warm and friendly” progressive trance and house. He will probably be playing the same format at Tune and Fuel… Peace,Sobeton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingstreet Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Who cares what David Padilla is like on a personal level? The point is he is one of Miami's premier DJs and I for one am glad to see him with a residency again...I hope this one works!FUEL: these people have to make up their minds...one week its one thing the next week its another...the problem is it's getting to that point where nobody even cares anymore..I know I don't....if I'm in downtown its Space for me...Its the sure thing.. I'll definitely be at Salvation next Friday for Padilla's new party....I'm not too sure about George Alvarado though power96= EEEEEKK!!!!

sobeton Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Kingstreet > I agree with your statement bro. Curious to see what George Alvarado throws down when he is spinning live. His association with Power 96 could be a blessing; or a curse. We will see next week….Peace,Sobeton [This message has been edited by sobeton (edited 02-23-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
