Gelly Kusuma and Mikey Velazquez are EASILY INFLUENCED.

Together, Gelly and Mikey both helped to kickoff the "HAWT Movement" in February of 2006 in Los Angeles. With the idea of starting a record label as motivation, they launched HAWT Afterhours on every 1st and 3rd Friday in May of 2006, showcasing the DJ talent of not only various quality acts from all over the world, but also displaying the talent of so many of the great DJ's in the local scene. "The main focus has always been on bringing back that old school house vibe at parties, bringing friends together with music", according to Mikey, and they have done just that so far with the help of Eddie Barajas, and many more along the way.

Lookout for the HAWT Music Label Launch to come very soon.

Also keep an eye out for original music by EASILY INFLUENCED which has been getting played by many such as Justin Long, Phil Weeks, DJ Mes, Natural Rhythm, Ricardo Rae, etc. "We think our versatility will surprise people. We really do love it all, and that will become evident in our music the longer and longer we do this", said Gelly.

An EASILY INFLUENCED DJ set is also an extremely funky-fun experience that will make you shake your booty! Check out their recent mix from "BOUNCE" in Fresno to get an idea of how much fun their sets are.
