Picture the summer 1983…In the Bronx, NY a block party, also known as a street jam, is in full effect.
A 13 year old kid steps in front of the turntables and starts playing a combination of Latin, House and Hip Hop music. The crowd goes wild and quickly the neighborhood nicknames the young kid 'Baby Hec' Romero. As his notoriety and age grows, he finds himself playing at the premier Latin Dance Club 'La Mirage', and doing nights at the hippest street club the 'Devils Nest'. The very same club where friend Louie Vega got his start. Soon after that, "Baby Hec" Romero (a name that has taken years to shed) found himself DJ-ing at some of New York City's legendary clubs and underground spots such as Save the Robots, The Red Zone, famed Palladium, and the Roxy.
