A fresh batch of goodness we cooked up for the season!  Hope you’re having a great one this year, wherever you are :) Elian & Inés 

A loungey set for an early Saturday night, or a Sunday afternoon that finds that good groove.

It happens once a year:  my birthday.  However, this one quickly turned into an M Café reunion, with DJs Kevin Ruiz, Mark Cali-Jentes and OB One joining me in the booth, while Wendell Garcia performed by proxy—since his wife was giving birth in the hospital! Spotted in the crowd were Kimmie & Inaki Lamar’s, Jade Santos, Sarada & Mike, Audrey Carpio, Kevin & Irene, Chip Childers, Lala Alvarez, Rafael Dominguez, Mike Sinclair, Carsten & Gianna Stormer, John Riad & Shiela Viesca, Mark Jentes & Mona, Lord & Aksana Ancheta, Ron Davis, Edgar Krohn, Ferdi Salvador, Kate Torralba, Antonio Ressano, Francisco & Kimmy Delgado, Morgan & Jasmine Gilvrey, Karen & Freddie Elizalde, Bryan Bambike, Santi Picornell, Martin Wisniewski, Natalie, Sunshine & Ricardo, Fadzly Yusof, Abhi Mohan, Butch Menchaca, Jorge Josef, Shayne Murray, Martin & Jay Block, David Miller, Ana Gonzalez.  The event was sponsored by Chivas Regal, photos by Ed Simon, and it was hosted by Mackey Maguigad and my lovely wife Inés.   And here’s a bit of the playlist from that night!

It's another installment of Jazz Underground, just in time for the holidays!  Here, you'll find an extended set of downtempo, modern jazz to fill your soul with positive vibes.  Merry Christmas and a music-filled New Year to one and all!  Elian and Ines

Here's "part two" of the 5-hour curated set I performed at my new Jazz Underground monthly residency at UNWND on July 29, 2022  The next installment is scheduled for September 23, starting at 8pm at UNWND in Poblacion.  Mark it down and we'll see you there www.musicandwineradio.com

Well, it just so happens that we have a new residence: UNWND in Poblacion.  The venue is a cozy lounge that is part of the boutique hotel by the same name.   And the music we deliver is modern jazz.  The two seem to go exquisitely well together.  Shout out to Macky Maguigad for organizing the evening! Here is Set 1 from the debut evening last Friday, and see you there once again on Friday August 26th for more :)

Hot new set packed with modern jazz beats by Robert Glasper, Brad Mehldau, Taylor McFerrin, Nate Smith, Moonchild, Kem, Cory Henry, and surprise vocals by Norah Jones.

Our most heartfelt greetings and best wishes to all of you our dear listeners, wherever you are in the world.  May the joy of the season remain with you throughout the coming year.  And remember:  music is the color of life!

Once in a while, we like to slightly deviate from our "bread and butter".  Here's something perfect for your next cook out ;)

We're getting a ton of excellent feedback on our Strictly Jazz series of music sets.  Here's a fresh new one for you :)
