🎸New Episode🎸
This week Brian is joined by Robbie Kowal AKA Motion Potion AKA MoPo, professional DJ, record producer, concert promoter and CEO of Hush Concerts.
Known for blending electronic music with the genres of funk, hip hop, and psychedelic rock, he first started mixing live in 1995. After moving to San Francisco in 1997, he co-founded the concert promotion company Sunset Promotions or SunsetSF in 2001, which became known for producing festivals such as the SF Funk Fest and North Beach Jazz.
Since then he has helped found and/or produce festivals and concert nights such as All Shook Down Music Festival, Sea of Dreams NYE, Ghost Ship Halloween, Loveboat Halloween, North Beach Jazz, Festival of the Golden Gate and Mojito Café.
According to the Los Angeles Times, in 2006 MoPo was the first DJ to play a silent disco in the United States, and since then he has founded Silent Frisco, a headphone dance concert production company. In 2015, Silent Frisco and SunsetSF merged to become HUSHconcerts, an event production company that now contributes to more than 1000 events per year.
