    Vasquez is a godfather of dance music and one of the most well-known LGBTQ+ producers in the world. He boasts writing credits on hit records with Janet Jackson, Madonna, Cher, Pet Shop Boys, and that only scratches the surface.

    Vasquez is a godfather of dance music and one of the most well-known LGBTQ+ producers in the world. He boasts writing credits on hit records with Janet Jackson, Madonna, Cher, Pet Shop Boys -- and that only scratches the surface.

    He was also a founder of -- and resident at -- the iconic NYC club Sound Factory and was a mainstay at other nightlife institutions like Twilo, Tunnel, and the Arena at the Palladium.

    Not only was this show with Teksupport a huge birthday celebration, but it's also an important show because as you might have seen, he's been performing far less than usual as of late. It remains to be seen when he'll next be taking the decks in NYC.
