Biography of DJ Sun
It all started in the Fall of 1992 with NiteShift, an event hosted and produced by Tunde Akindele. The event featured Houston poet and artist, Israel McCloud, a DJ and a three piece jazz band. It took place at then Club Kamelyon in the 900 block of Prairie, in downtown Houston.
By 1993 Tunde and DJ Sun crossed paths and exchanged ideas about the music they enjoyed and how inaccessible it had been to the general audience. Why not do an event playing jazz, funk, hip hop, house and reggae in an atmosphere conducive to chillin' and groovin'.
The Soulcookin' events were born and provided the crowds with different flavors including rare grooves and an alternative groove (acid jazz). The events had subtitles and moved from venue to venue: 'Sugar' (1/94) at Bubbahs BBQ & Danceteria, “Soulcookin' with Fire” (4/94) at Lawndale Art Center, 'Soulcookin’s New Year’s Eve' (12/93) at C&B Cafeteria.
In April, 1994, after “Soulcookin' with Fire”, DJ Sun joined with The Equinox Group to start Soulstice. The jazz club was located upstairs at 910 Prairie, in downtown Houston and featured poetry, live jazz and DJ Sun on the Turntables every Friday, spinning rare grooves, jazz, salsa, house and hip hop.
In December 1994 Soulstice shut down and DJ SUN moved to the airwaves when he secured a slot on KPFT 90.1 FM. At first mired at the Wednesday 3 to 5am slot, the show was moved to prime time: Soular Grooves, 9pm to midnight.
