One half of the duo behind seasonal Los Angeles lot party Bears in Space, Victor Rodriguez's relationship to the city's queer club scene runs deep — so deep, in fact, that he's basically one of the people who started it. In this wide-ranging interview with Honey Soundsystem's Jackie House, the New Jersey-born Cuban-American DJ and promoter chronicles a life spent spreading the joys of disco to the world. From his beginnings in a high school mobile DJ crew to founding one of the city's first disco parties to his 12-year stint as a resident DJ for the glamorous, celebrity-studded dance night Beige, there have been plenty of adventures along the way (including the time he DJ'd for Grace Jones). Listen in for a hand-picked soundtrack of some of Rodriguez' favorite tracks of all time. The episode opens with a 30-minute lounge mix from Jackie House.
