This week on Once I DJ I talk to someone who’s never actually been a DJ, but has now told one of the most significant stories of DJ culture. Our guest is visual artist turned film maker Omar Acosta about his journey from young aspiring graffiti artist, to writing, co-producing and directing his latest project “Mixtape: The Movie”. We get hear how Tony Touch’s mixtapes kept him abreast of the latest trends while he spent a 5 year period in Puerto Rico, and journey through his career to the point where he learnt to tell the stories which mattered to him the most.
