Sometimes it went well, but the most of the time she wouldn’t make any money at all, and it was hard for her as a single parent, trying to bring up her 5 children, without support, so Andy decided to help her out on the music side of things by doing the DJing. At the time Andy was mostly into Hip-hop, Rib and even House music, despite the fact that his mother always had Salsa blaring out wherever she was. Andy gradually began to feel the music and found he could relate to its history and see how the other genres of music grew out of it - like Hip-hop, RnB etc. then started to part exchange my Hip-hop, RnB and House music for Latin vinyl’s, mainly Salsa. Andy started DJing professionally at La Finca (Islington). 3 nights a week, Thursday to Saturday. when he was 15. The owner of La Finca, Jim gave Andy the name ìEl Ninoî , when Andy was celebrating his 18 th birthday at La Finca. and the owner realised that Andy had been working for 3 years illegally and started calling himÖîEl NinoÖEl NinoÖDJ El Ninoî meaning ‘little boy or young boy’. He’s kept the name El Nino ever since. La Finca was one of the major Latin clubs in London . Almost everyone went there to dance Salsa in the late 80s and early 90s, remembering then, there weren’t many Latin clubs in the UK . Andy DJ’ed there for 6 good years. He then moved onto a DJ residency at Fiesta Havana, Hanover Square where he does most of his DJing. alongside regular slots at Barrio Latino in Bar Rumba. alongside occasional various ventures into record production. Andy is known for playing the best, the most uncompromising, the most upfront, Salsa, Reggaeton, Merengue, Latin house, hip-hop and RnB. which typically will include Pete Conde Rodriguez, Jimmy Sabater, Hector Lavoe, El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico, Daddy Yankee, Ruben Blades, Bobby Valentine, Tego Calderon, Vico-C, Jose Cheo Feliciano, and Willie Colon.

Music was good, very mixed policy, as advertised. The dancefloor is pretty small and the club is already full by 10 so not the easiest place to go and dance but nice venue all the same.
