And every once in a while you can even look up and see him stunting on the jumbotron. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On top of being the Warriors DJ, he’s a hip-hop producer. Recently he’s done projects with North Oakland’s ST Spittin and the group, MacArthur Maze. He’s been producing for just about as long as he’s been a DJ– dating back to his teens. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a guy who was raised in East Oakland, DJ D Sharp says it’s been a dream being a part of the Warriors franchise.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp, guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I don’t take none of it for granted.

And you’ve produced some really tight projects over the last couple of years out of, out of the East Bay. Let’s start at the start. What came first: deejaying or producing?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Deejaying most definitely came first. I was collecting records and like, the \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yo! MTV Rap\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> era, like, it was just like, I loved it and I couldn’t, you know, step away from the TV. I was always tuned in, dialed in. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">What was the first piece of equipment you had?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The first piece of equipment I had was my mom’s turn table. It was some off-brand name. I was on that thing learning. And then I was like, oh, I need a mixer and then I got a mixer from the homie down the street.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But my pops is uh, he’s a musician and he played the keyboards and he had bands and all that kind of stuff. So he’d buy the latest drum machine, and then I’d just be playing on it, and then next thing you know, he’d forget about it and he giving it to me.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I caught on a real fast to the point where I think that’s why people started giving me equipment, giving me records and giving me stuff because they were seeing it. They was like, yo, he got it. Like, take this and go play. Go, go, go, go, experiment with this and then come back to me. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">What age are we talking about here?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> 12. 13. 14.\u003c/span>\u003cb> I \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">had homies in Richmond, who I would go spend a weekend, every other weekend with them. My boy Aaron ,we were the same age, so we would we would hang out and his brothers was deejays. So I go to they house and just get equipment. Like, I come home with records.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was a community effort.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was a community effort for sure.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So a lot of these factors pouring into you, a lot of Bay area energy. You said either in the town or in Richmond. You did mention that \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yo! MTV Raps\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> having that influence on you as well.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yeah. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I’m wondering like, does this whole trope about, you know, all Bay area music all sounds the same and how like there’s an east coast sound and a west coast sound, did that ever play a part in you developing your style?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When people heard me out deejaying and it’d be like the first question they asked me all the time was, was I from the east coast, “because you don’t you don’t deejay like these other cats. Like you, where are you from?” I’m like ‘I’m from East Oakland.’ Like, you know what I’m saying? They’d be like, “What?” I’d be like, ‘Yeah.’\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You know, being from the Town, you know, it’s all about the knock. It’s all about the slump. It’s all about, you know,415’s. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cb> \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So I came from that but also came from the choppin’ samples and that side of hip hop is the drum breaks and stuff like that. So like I’m taking the drum breaking and adding 808 to it, you get what I’m saying, like, you know,Too $hort, like, “In The Trunk” Like you listen to “In The Trunk” that’s what that is. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can hear it in my sound in a production, like, for me, I grew up loving Gang Starr as much as I love Ant Banks and Spice 1. I love Too $hort just as much as I loved Big Daddy Kane.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I was just immersed in hip hop.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Those early days of getting into the game and you start working with some, some pretty heavyweight names in the industry.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For a time period, you were tour deejay for Lauryn Hill?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes! ‘Cause Kev Choice had tapped me to be the tour DJ for Lauryn because she tapped him to be the music director. Me and Kev go way back to Brookfield Elementary. You know, anytime he thinks of a DJ, anytime I think of, some, a multi instrumentalist, I think, of Kev. So we collab and we always look out for each other.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, yeah, Lauryn Hill was craz and it was a dope run, and I learned a lot from her. We all did.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And I became a tour deejay all the way up until 2010, so you talking ten years.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We toured heavy with will.i.am. And I saw will.i.am at a Warriors game. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And he was like, “You the Warriors Dj?” He was like “Oh okay, that’s whats up,” you know what I mean. So it all be a full circle moment.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Clip of promotional video] \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“One more time, give it up for DJ D Sharp, come on!”\u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> [basketball arena crowd cheers] \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You’ve mentioned The Warriors, you’ve been there over a dozen years now. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bring me back to the start. How do you land that gig?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">God bless the dead DJ Solomon. He was the first deejay for the Warriors and I argue that he might have been the first deejay in the NBA. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He taught me a lot. He was a peer but he was also a mentor and I met him at a Blackalicious show. He he approached me and he said, “Bro, like your scratching, bro, it’s so crazy. Like, I DJ for the Warriors and you know, we’d love to have you come and just do a 2 x 4 set with me.” I was like ‘Yeah it’s all good,’ we exchanged numbers.” We killed it. We had a good time. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And then he was like, “Let’s do it again.”\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> And then he would do it with other deejays as well in the community. But then, he got busy, like, he was a part of the whole Serato situation. For those who don’t know, Serrato was the software used by DJs, just like, the number one software. But like, if you look back at the promo, bro is on the promo with like Z trip, DJ Jazzy Jeff, like Qbert, like with all the these heavy hitter deejays. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He got busy. So he couldn’t do a lot of games. So he would, like, send out these emails to a bunch of DJs and, and, you know, for some reason, it felt like I was always the one who answered the emails.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is when the Warriors sucked too, right. This is like pre, “we believe.” And then when “we believe” came like I was still filling in for him. But he did like all that playoff run and all that kind of stuff. And then up until 2012, he… man, yeah, he passed away, man, and then the Warriors offered me the gig.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before the Dynasty and Steph, Klay and Dre like in the early days like what does it mean to be a part of the entertainment of a team that’s not performing too well?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">That was what it was all about. It was about the entertainment, right? because the team wasn’t good. So if you, if you, remember we had Thunder.\u003c/span>\u003cb> \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing, crowd cheering]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thunder was the mascot for the Warriors. Thunder was the highlight, you know, dunking and doing his thing and going all around the arena ya know what I mean? Thunder was the man.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shout out Brett Yamaguchi, who was the head of all the entertainment. He made it where the entertainment was top notch. Like the t-shirt toss and like, the Warriors dance team and like all of that stuff, like, you know those timeouts, those breaks, those contests, like, all of that stuff was more exciting than the game itself \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[laughs]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> You get what I’m saying?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Warriors chant]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I do remember the arena always being filled. Like, people will always show up for the warriors, like, regardless of the losing seasons and all of that kinda stuff. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I’m rolling. I’m sorry. Yeah. You’re like “it was always packed,” like, yeah, because people got free tickets from the library, from Lucky’s, Round Table. But yeah, those were good times. You know, there was no winning in sight. I couldn’t foresee a Steph, Klay, Dray, like, dynasty like we have now.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">No one could bro. And that’s the, that’s the magic and the beauty of it all, right?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Yeah. Do you have a certain song that you go to for a certain situation? like say, I don’t know, it’s 24 seconds left on the clock and the Warriors got the ball, they down, you know, a point and you want the crowd to get amped during that half, during that timeout right before the ball comes into play. Do you have a song that will play for folks?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The only song that really that I go like, is a go to song when it’s cracking and is going stupid in there,I did like a house remix for the E-40 remix. So I do that a lot because it’s a lot of energy. “Everybody say Warriors, Warriors” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I play that in moments like that. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You deejay for the Warriors during this, like historical run, right, for this past decade. And when they play these clips as these players Steph, Klay, Dre go into the Hall of Fame, they’ll have those songs in the background as the clips play. Like, does that ever like, occur to you that you’re kind of laying the soundtrack for history?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yeah, I think about it, you know ? Because it’s like, you know, I mean, I’ve had Steph, I’ve had Coach Kerr, I’ve had Loon, even GP too like, like I’ve had these brothers come up to me telling me, I make an impact. So it’s dope to hear that. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">With that said, you’re a valued member of the team. You’ve got championship rings, multiple.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: yeah, \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">No. It’s crazy. There’s one for each member of my family. Me, my wife and my two sons. We got four.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For you personally this year,while, the team has had its ups and downs, and a lot of down, you personally have had some some pretty big highlights, All Sar, All Star 2024?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes, I was tapped to go and do All Star 2024. I did the celebrity game and that was fun. You know, that experience is amazing and is coming to the Bay area.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You think that this means a lot to the entire Bay area, I’m assuming?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Oh for sure, for sure, man.I think the Bay is getting a bad rap right now from the homelessness to everything that’s going on with the crime and bippin’ and all that kind of stuff.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But when you talk to people and you talk to family in other cities and other locations, like, this is going on across the country, across the world, like bippin’ is happening, like it’s worse in Atlanta as far as I know. But it don’t get amplified like it does here in the Bay for some reason.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Oakland gets a bad rap, especially like, we been lost all of our teams. It’s like they trying to like, cleanse us of Oakland. It’s like, what are we doing? Like, no, Oakland is beautiful and it needs to be put on a pedestal.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cb> \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It’s heartbreaking to see. But at the same time, I think Oakland gonna eventually end up being on top like we always are.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Yeah, as you talk about it, it’s kind of wild to me that you see it on both sides like the professional, the sports team, you were there for the Warriors move away from the town and through the music. The music is always an underdog to the bigger cities. And so playing that role, you’re carrying a lot of weight there!\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Again, I see us, like, rising from the ashes like we here, Like, this is what we do. So, yeah, we’ll be aight.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So beyond basketball, you’re also part owner of the Oakland Roots soccer team. Like, how did how did that come to be?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">That sound crazy, don’t it, right? Shout out my sister, she hit me up. She was like, you know, “There’s rare opportunity to be a part of this, the growth of what’s going on with the Oakland Roots, Oakland Soul.” And she sent me the information and it was kind of like, a no brainer. And it’s going back to like, my kids, like, I’m looking at that. Like, I’m trying to set up something for them.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And on top of that, you look at Oakland Soul and you look at Oakland Roots, right. They are here. They are Oakland. You get what I’m saying? And I don’t, I don’t never see them, you know, packing up and going out. I only see them growing. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">My sons are humongous soccer fans, so they know all the players. They know everything about it. So, it was just a wonderful opportunity that I had to kind of just, I had to do it. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So you, where you are in your career again, both in the the DJ realm, the production realm, you also have these two little ones that you mentioned before, your children, and also your wife, I’m like, your family, what does it mean to them to see you in the position that you’re in?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I tell you this about my boys, man, and one of the things I love the most, because they love music and they love basketball. I’m able to provide them resources that I didn’t have coming up, which is a blessing. I mean, these boys are playing AAU basketball, you know, karate, soccer league, they doing all the sports. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">They have a story within themselves, like, they were able to be in a parade twice. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/strong> So my whole family, we had our own car in a parade, and they waving to people and doing all this stuff, so it’s like, especially my 11 year old, to see his confidence. And, you know, I love it. Like, he’s a confident kid. He’s like, real headstrong. He knows what he wants and he he goes for it. That’s all I can ask, man.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sounds like you’re passing on more than a championship ring.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">That’s the whole thing about fatherhood, you just want, you want to give them what you didn’t have, but you also want to teach them things, valuable lessons you’ve learned and pass them on, so yeah.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Congrats to that!\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thank you:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw, host: \u003c/b>One more time for DJ D Sharp.

You probably know this story, Pen, the story about how they went to China and he never came back. Like, he got married and settled and had a family over there.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I did not hear this story at all.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I don’t know if it was PR or it was a fan. It’s crazy, look it up.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pen Harshaw, host\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">: We did look it up. And buried on the Warriors official Youtube page, we found this: a 10 year old video explaining why the Dubs’ beloved mascot Thunder is no longer with the team.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Clip from “Thunder: Found in China”:\u003c/b> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I came to China with the Warriors for the NBA China Games in 2008, and I started dancing with Chinese fans like I had never danced before. I also met the love of my life here in China and never looked back and I’m not coming back.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Life, love, dunking and dancing, China has it all for me. At first there were struggles fitting in, but I found an inner peace. And I want you to know. While I miss you dearly, Warriors fans, you taught me what it was to be thunder. But now my home is China.

He’s been producing for just about as long as he’s been a DJ– dating back to his teens. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a guy who was raised in East Oakland, DJ D Sharp says it’s been a dream being a part of the Warriors franchise.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp, guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I don’t take none of it for granted. Like, it’s an amazing experience to deejay in front of 20,000 people every night and to get the love from the people too. It’s just amazing, bro. Like, I’m blessed. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> So for this episode, we chop it up about his journey to the Warriors, providing the soundtrack for a basketball dynasty and what legacy he’s building for the Town and his family, coming up after this. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bringing you into the discussion today, excited to talk to you because you are at the helm of something very important: you provide the soundtrack to one of my favorite sports teams. And you’ve produced some really tight projects over the last couple of years out of, out of the East Bay. Let’s start at the start. What came first: deejaying or producing?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Deejaying most definitely came first. I was collecting records and like, the \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yo! MTV Rap\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> era, like, it was just like, I loved it and I couldn’t, you know, step away from the TV. I was always tuned in, dialed in. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">What was the first piece of equipment you had?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The first piece of equipment I had was my mom’s turn table. It was some off-brand name. I was on that thing learning. And then I was like, oh, I need a mixer and then I got a mixer from the homie down the street.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But my pops is uh, he’s a musician and he played the keyboards and he had bands and all that kind of stuff. So he’d buy the latest drum machine, and then I’d just be playing on it, and then next thing you know, he’d forget about it and he giving it to me.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I caught on a real fast to the point where I think that’s why people started giving me equipment, giving me records and giving me stuff because they were seeing it. They was like, yo, he got it. Like, take this and go play. Go, go, go, go, experiment with this and then come back to me. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">What age are we talking about here?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> 12. 13. 14.\u003c/span>\u003cb> I \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">had homies in Richmond, who I would go spend a weekend, every other weekend with them. My boy Aaron ,we were the same age, so we would we would hang out and his brothers was deejays. So I go to they house and just get equipment. Like, I come home with records.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was a community effort.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was a community effort for sure.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So a lot of these factors pouring into you, a lot of Bay area energy. You said either in the town or in Richmond. You did mention that \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yo! MTV Raps\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> having that influence on you as well.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yeah. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I’m wondering like, does this whole trope about, you know, all Bay area music all sounds the same and how like there’s an east coast sound and a west coast sound, did that ever play a part in you developing your style?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When people heard me out deejaying and it’d be like the first question they asked me all the time was, was I from the east coast, “because you don’t you don’t deejay like these other cats. Like you, where are you from?” I’m like ‘I’m from East Oakland.’ Like, you know what I’m saying? They’d be like, “What?” I’d be like, ‘Yeah.’\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You know, being from the Town, you know, it’s all about the knock. It’s all about the slump. It’s all about, you know,415’s. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cb> \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So I came from that but also came from the choppin’ samples and that side of hip hop is the drum breaks and stuff like that. So like I’m taking the drum breaking and adding 808 to it, you get what I’m saying, like, you know,Too $hort, like, “In The Trunk” Like you listen to “In The Trunk” that’s what that is. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can hear it in my sound in a production, like, for me, I grew up loving Gang Starr as much as I love Ant Banks and Spice 1. I love Too $hort just as much as I loved Big Daddy Kane.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I was just immersed in hip hop.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Those early days of getting into the game and you start working with some, some pretty heavyweight names in the industry.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For a time period, you were tour deejay for Lauryn Hill?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes! ‘Cause Kev Choice had tapped me to be the tour DJ for Lauryn because she tapped him to be the music director. Me and Kev go way back to Brookfield Elementary. You know, anytime he thinks of a DJ, anytime I think of, some, a multi instrumentalist, I think, of Kev. So we collab and we always look out for each other.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, yeah, Lauryn Hill was craz and it was a dope run, and I learned a lot from her. We all did.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And I became a tour deejay all the way up until 2010, so you talking ten years.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We toured heavy with will.i.am. And I saw will.i.am at a Warriors game. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And he was like, “You the Warriors Dj?” He was like “Oh okay, that’s whats up,” you know what I mean. So it all be a full circle moment.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Clip of promotional video] \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“One more time, give it up for DJ D Sharp, come on!”\u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> [basketball arena crowd cheers] \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You’ve mentioned The Warriors, you’ve been there over a dozen years now. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bring me back to the start. How do you land that gig?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">God bless the dead DJ Solomon. He was the first deejay for the Warriors and I argue that he might have been the first deejay in the NBA. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He taught me a lot. He was a peer but he was also a mentor and I met him at a Blackalicious show. He he approached me and he said, “Bro, like your scratching, bro, it’s so crazy. Like, I DJ for the Warriors and you know, we’d love to have you come and just do a 2 x 4 set with me.” I was like ‘Yeah it’s all good,’ we exchanged numbers.” We killed it. We had a good time. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And then he was like, “Let’s do it again.”\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> And then he would do it with other deejays as well in the community. But then, he got busy, like, he was a part of the whole Serato situation. For those who don’t know, Serrato was the software used by DJs, just like, the number one software. But like, if you look back at the promo, bro is on the promo with like Z trip, DJ Jazzy Jeff, like Qbert, like with all the these heavy hitter deejays. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He got busy. So he couldn’t do a lot of games. So he would, like, send out these emails to a bunch of DJs and, and, you know, for some reason, it felt like I was always the one who answered the emails.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is when the Warriors sucked too, right. This is like pre, “we believe.” And then when “we believe” came like I was still filling in for him. But he did like all that playoff run and all that kind of stuff. And then up until 2012, he… man, yeah, he passed away, man, and then the Warriors offered me the gig.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before the Dynasty and Steph, Klay and Dre like in the early days like what does it mean to be a part of the entertainment of a team that’s not performing too well?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">That was what it was all about. It was about the entertainment, right? because the team wasn’t good. So if you, if you, remember we had Thunder.\u003c/span>\u003cb> \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing, crowd cheering]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thunder was the mascot for the Warriors. Thunder was the highlight, you know, dunking and doing his thing and going all around the arena ya know what I mean? Thunder was the man.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shout out Brett Yamaguchi, who was the head of all the entertainment. He made it where the entertainment was top notch. Like the t-shirt toss and like, the Warriors dance team and like all of that stuff, like, you know those timeouts, those breaks, those contests, like, all of that stuff was more exciting than the game itself \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[laughs]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> You get what I’m saying?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Warriors chant]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I do remember the arena always being filled. Like, people will always show up for the warriors, like, regardless of the losing seasons and all of that kinda stuff. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I’m rolling. I’m sorry. Yeah. You’re like “it was always packed,” like, yeah, because people got free tickets from the library, from Lucky’s, Round Table. But yeah, those were good times. You know, there was no winning in sight. I couldn’t foresee a Steph, Klay, Dray, like, dynasty like we have now.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">No one could bro. And that’s the, that’s the magic and the beauty of it all, right?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Yeah. Do you have a certain song that you go to for a certain situation? like say, I don’t know, it’s 24 seconds left on the clock and the Warriors got the ball, they down, you know, a point and you want the crowd to get amped during that half, during that timeout right before the ball comes into play. Do you have a song that will play for folks?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The only song that really that I go like, is a go to song when it’s cracking and is going stupid in there,I did like a house remix for the E-40 remix. So I do that a lot because it’s a lot of energy. “Everybody say Warriors, Warriors” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> I play that in moments like that. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You deejay for the Warriors during this, like historical run, right, for this past decade. And when they play these clips as these players Steph, Klay, Dre go into the Hall of Fame, they’ll have those songs in the background as the clips play. Like, does that ever like, occur to you that you’re kind of laying the soundtrack for history?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yeah, I think about it, you know ? Because it’s like, you know, I mean, I’ve had Steph, I’ve had Coach Kerr, I’ve had Loon, even GP too like, like I’ve had these brothers come up to me telling me, I make an impact. So it’s dope to hear that. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">With that said, you’re a valued member of the team. You’ve got championship rings, multiple.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: yeah, \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">No. It’s crazy. There’s one for each member of my family. Me, my wife and my two sons. We got four.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For you personally this year,while, the team has had its ups and downs, and a lot of down, you personally have had some some pretty big highlights, All Sar, All Star 2024?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes, I was tapped to go and do All Star 2024. I did the celebrity game and that was fun. You know, that experience is amazing and is coming to the Bay area.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">You think that this means a lot to the entire Bay area, I’m assuming?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Oh for sure, for sure, man.I think the Bay is getting a bad rap right now from the homelessness to everything that’s going on with the crime and bippin’ and all that kind of stuff.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But when you talk to people and you talk to family in other cities and other locations, like, this is going on across the country, across the world, like bippin’ is happening, like it’s worse in Atlanta as far as I know. But it don’t get amplified like it does here in the Bay for some reason.\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Oakland gets a bad rap, especially like, we been lost all of our teams. It’s like they trying to like, cleanse us of Oakland. It’s like, what are we doing? Like, no, Oakland is beautiful and it needs to be put on a pedestal.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cb> \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It’s heartbreaking to see. But at the same time, I think Oakland gonna eventually end up being on top like we always are.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Yeah, as you talk about it, it’s kind of wild to me that you see it on both sides like the professional, the sports team, you were there for the Warriors move away from the town and through the music. The music is always an underdog to the bigger cities. And so playing that role, you’re carrying a lot of weight there!\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Again, I see us, like, rising from the ashes like we here, Like, this is what we do. So, yeah, we’ll be aight.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[Music playing]\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Pendarvis Harshaw: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So beyond basketball, you’re also part owner of the Oakland Roots soccer team. Like, how did how did that come to be?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>DJ D Sharp: \u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">That sound crazy, don’t it, right? Shout out my sister, she hit me up. She was like, you know, “There’s rare opportunity to be a part of this, the growth of what’s going on with the Oakland Roots, Oakland Soul.” And she sent me the information and it was kind of like, a no brainer. And it’s going back to like, my kids, like, I’m looking at that. Like, I’m trying to set up something for them.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And on top of that, you look at Oakland Soul and you look at Oakland Roots, right.

And buried on the Warriors official Youtube page, we found this: a 10 year old video explaining why the Dubs’ beloved mascot Thunder is no longer with the team.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Clip from “Thunder: Found in China”:\u003c/b> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I came to China with the Warriors for the NBA China Games in 2008, and I started dancing with Chinese fans like I had never danced before. I also met the love of my life here in China and never looked back and I’m not coming back.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Life, love, dunking and dancing, China has it all for me. At first there were struggles fitting in, but I found an inner peace. And I want you to know. While I miss you dearly, Warriors fans, you taught me what it was to be thunder. But now my home is China.

Winnen says a lot of advice for plus-size women is outdated, focusing on hiding body parts rather than highlighting personality.

Winnen says a lot of advice for plus-size women is outdated, focusing on hiding body parts rather than highlighting personality.

She also includes a recipe for gallo en chicha, rooster cooked in a fermented pineapple juice — which happens to be one of Salguero’s favorite dishes on Popoca’s menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13956882\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13956882\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001.jpg\" alt=\"A stewed chicken served on a green platter surrounded by bowls of white rice.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2282\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-800x913.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-1020x1164.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-160x183.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-768x876.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-1346x1536.jpg 1346w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-1795x2048.jpg 1795w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/Gallo-En-Chicha_Page_1_Image_0001-1920x2191.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Both Vasquez and Salguero make versions of a stewed chicken dish called gallo en chicha.

They were so good, and I was sad that you only seemed to sell them once every two months.

We rotate our special every week, which is why it’s only served once in a while. My mother made these wings for me as a child, and they were my absolute favorite! I knew we had to put them on the menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Are there any challenges with making dim sum work at the farmers market? Do you have to change certain recipes to make it work?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We had never worked at a farmers market before, so we learned how to adapt and improve along the way. In our 15 years of business, we have learned ways to operate more efficiently and effectively, especially in setting up our booth.\u003cb>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We have a commissary kitchen we work out of to prepare all of the dim sum. The dumplings are wrapped in the kitchen, and we steam everything fresh at the farmers markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>What is your favorite memory from running this business? Was there a specific customer that stood out to you? \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s building relationships with my customers. So many regulars come every week and make my dim sum part of their weekly ritual. There have also been many regulars who moved away but make it a priority to stop by whenever they are visiting. Countless mothers ate my dim sum while pregnant, and I saw these babies grow up. Whenever a child wants my food for their birthday party, or if I cater a bar or bat mitzvah, quinceañera, holiday party or wedding, it feels so special to be included in their special day. Any time a first-time customer comes back after they try the dim sum to tell me how much they enjoyed it, it is one of my favorite things. The food industry is a labor of love, and it is incredibly gratifying to receive excellent feedback.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One rainy winter day when I first joined the Grand Lake Farmers Market, one of my regular customers, Jefferson, brought me a cup of tea because he saw me shivering in the cold. It was a small gesture, but it meant so much to me, and I still remember it over 10 years later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13956336\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13956336\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes.jpg\" alt=\"A stack of scallion pancakes on a white plate.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2379\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-800x991.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-1020x1264.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-160x198.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-768x952.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-1240x1536.jpg 1240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-1653x2048.jpg 1653w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A stack of crispy, savory scallion pancakes. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Olivia Liu)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>That’s really sweet!\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, and during the wildfires, a customer named Linda gave me and my mother masks because she was concerned since we work outdoors.

She had requested that I make something with black truffles. That is when the black truffle shrimp dumpling was born. It is my personal favorite dumpling and has also become a favorite for many regulars. It’s special how we add black truffle to the shrimp filling, and we also add black truffle to the top of the dumpling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the traditional shrimp dumpling might be [better] for you if you are a purist.

We also have vegan dumplings such as our kale dumpling and bok choy dumpling, and seasonal [specials] like our asparagus dumpling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We are proud to source most of our produce from the farmers markets we attend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Did you know of any other businesses that were selling dim sum at farmers markets at that time?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in 2008, we could have been the only ones.

They were so good, and I was sad that you only seemed to sell them once every two months. Do you guys still sell those?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/C5-9z0xrCd0/\">spicy crispy chicken wings\u003c/a> are definitely popular, and we also make spicy crispy \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/C5a6fWNr0cl/\">salmon\u003c/a>. We rotate our special every week, which is why it’s only served once in a while. My mother made these wings for me as a child, and they were my absolute favorite! I knew we had to put them on the menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Are there any challenges with making dim sum work at the farmers market? Do you have to change certain recipes to make it work?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We had never worked at a farmers market before, so we learned how to adapt and improve along the way. In our 15 years of business, we have learned ways to operate more efficiently and effectively, especially in setting up our booth.\u003cb>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We have a commissary kitchen we work out of to prepare all of the dim sum. The dumplings are wrapped in the kitchen, and we steam everything fresh at the farmers markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>What is your favorite memory from running this business? Was there a specific customer that stood out to you? \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s building relationships with my customers. So many regulars come every week and make my dim sum part of their weekly ritual. There have also been many regulars who moved away but make it a priority to stop by whenever they are visiting. Countless mothers ate my dim sum while pregnant, and I saw these babies grow up. Whenever a child wants my food for their birthday party, or if I cater a bar or bat mitzvah, quinceañera, holiday party or wedding, it feels so special to be included in their special day. Any time a first-time customer comes back after they try the dim sum to tell me how much they enjoyed it, it is one of my favorite things. The food industry is a labor of love, and it is incredibly gratifying to receive excellent feedback.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One rainy winter day when I first joined the Grand Lake Farmers Market, one of my regular customers, Jefferson, brought me a cup of tea because he saw me shivering in the cold. It was a small gesture, but it meant so much to me, and I still remember it over 10 years later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13956336\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13956336\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes.jpg\" alt=\"A stack of scallion pancakes on a white plate.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2379\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-800x991.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-1020x1264.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-160x198.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-768x952.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-1240x1536.jpg 1240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/04/tru-gourmet-scallion-pancakes-1653x2048.jpg 1653w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A stack of crispy, savory scallion pancakes. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Olivia Liu)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>That’s really sweet!\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, and during the wildfires, a customer named Linda gave me and my mother masks because she was concerned since we work outdoors.

She had requested that I make something with black truffles. That is when the black truffle shrimp dumpling was born. It is my personal favorite dumpling and has also become a favorite for many regulars. It’s special how we add black truffle to the shrimp filling, and we also add black truffle to the top of the dumpling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the traditional shrimp dumpling might be [better] for you if you are a purist.

These days, the neighborhood feels like a ghost town anytime after 6 o’clock at night, to say nothing of the late-night jook and roast duck feasts I remember enjoying even just five or six years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’d never guess at any of this, though, if your only data point was Lounge Chinatown, a stylish Taiwanese bar and restaurant that opened in December of 2022 with the explicit intention of being a late-night destination: It serves its massive menu of Taiwanese and Chinese street food specialties until 2:30 a.m., seven days a week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Run by the folks behind Dragon Gate (\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13918993/dragon-gate-oakland-taiwanese-restaurant-reopening-karaoke\">another classic Oakland night spot\u003c/a>), Lounge stands out like a gaudily neon-lit, bamboo-bedecked beacon amid the well-weathered storefronts and boarded-up windows of 8th Street, in the heart of Chinatown. At a little past 9 o’clock on a recent Thursday night, it was one of just a small handful of places in the entire neighborhood that was still open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first thing you notice about Lounge Chinatown is the decor, which is so hiply and aggressively Asia-fied in its aesthetics that 20-year-old me, at the very height of my AZN pride, would have \u003ci>eaten it up\u003c/i> — all sleek red leather booths, lucky cat figurines and sexily back-lit Taiwanese whiskey bottles. Five or six different kinds of light fixtures, all designed to resemble various paper lanterns, bask the dining room in a nightclub-like glow. Meanwhile, a mural running the length of the restaurant depicts an unidentified Asian night market scene in such a way that the night market looks like the coolest damn place in the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the kind of restaurant where you might imagine Jet Li — or Son Goku, at the height of his powers — strolling in for a late-night bowl of noodles.

Even more so when it’s still available hours after midnight. As it turns out, the menu covers a surprisingly (and intimidatingly) vast range of Chinese and Taiwanese food genres, running the gamut from meat skewers to hot pot and malatang. You’ll do very well for yourself if you stick to the most famous Taiwanese classics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you aren’t unnecessarily squeamish, you’ll start, as we did, with an order of the fried stinky tofu, which arrives at the table crisp-edged and deliciously pungent, served with all the standard accompaniments: pickled cabbage, soy paste dressing and a dollop of chili sauce. It’s about as tasty a version as you can find in the East Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b2b2b;font-weight: 400\">\u003cb>\u003cstrong>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[aside postID='arts_13955884,arts_13951914,arts_13952823']\u003c/span>\u003c/strong>\u003c/b>\u003c/span>The best way to sample a bunch of things is to order one of the bento boxes, which come with a big scoop of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13897498/mama-liu-lu-rou-fan-taiwanese-food-comic\">lu rou fan\u003c/a> (braised pork rice), pickles, sautéed greens and a marinated egg. We went with the fried pork chop — a nostalgic classic for anyone who’s ever bought a boxed lunch at a \u003ca href=\"https://www.eater.com/2019/3/6/18241749/bento-box-best-food-train-stations-taiwan\">train station in Taiwan\u003c/a>. Lounge’s version hits all the right notes: the jolt of five-spice powder on the crunchy batter, the juiciness and lavish fattiness of the thick, bone-in chop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the star of the menu has got to be the beef noodle soup, a faithful rendition of one of Taiwan’s most famous dishes. The noodles are thick and chewy. The generous chunks of beef shank and tendon are slow-cooked to a jiggly, luxurious tenderness. And the broth? Spicy and savory, heavy on the tongue-numbing Sichuan peppercorn — almost \u003ci>too \u003c/i>boldly flavorful for me to finish the entire bowl, making it perfect for sharing. It’s pure comfort food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ll have to come back again, with more stomach space or a larger group, to try the extensive selection of lu wei, a uniquely Taiwanese genre of cold, braised street snacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My usual worry with a place like Lounge Chinatown is that it’ll be too loud or too trendy — too many weekend karaoke warriors singing badly in public. But the truth is, the restaurant was busy during our visit but not exceptionally so. The vibe was more Chill Place for Quiet Conversation than it was Loud Party Zone. Like the rest of Chinatown, it seems, the restaurant is just starting to get things rolling again.

These days, the neighborhood feels like a ghost town anytime after 6 o’clock at night, to say nothing of the late-night jook and roast duck feasts I remember enjoying even just five or six years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’d never guess at any of this, though, if your only data point was Lounge Chinatown, a stylish Taiwanese bar and restaurant that opened in December of 2022 with the explicit intention of being a late-night destination: It serves its massive menu of Taiwanese and Chinese street food specialties until 2:30 a.m., seven days a week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Run by the folks behind Dragon Gate (\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13918993/dragon-gate-oakland-taiwanese-restaurant-reopening-karaoke\">another classic Oakland night spot\u003c/a>), Lounge stands out like a gaudily neon-lit, bamboo-bedecked beacon amid the well-weathered storefronts and boarded-up windows of 8th Street, in the heart of Chinatown. At a little past 9 o’clock on a recent Thursday night, it was one of just a small handful of places in the entire neighborhood that was still open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first thing you notice about Lounge Chinatown is the decor, which is so hiply and aggressively Asia-fied in its aesthetics that 20-year-old me, at the very height of my AZN pride, would have \u003ci>eaten it up\u003c/i> — all sleek red leather booths, lucky cat figurines and sexily back-lit Taiwanese whiskey bottles. Five or six different kinds of light fixtures, all designed to resemble various paper lanterns, bask the dining room in a nightclub-like glow. Meanwhile, a mural running the length of the restaurant depicts an unidentified Asian night market scene in such a way that the night market looks like the coolest damn place in the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the kind of restaurant where you might imagine Jet Li — or Son Goku, at the height of his powers — strolling in for a late-night bowl of noodles.

Even more so when it’s still available hours after midnight. As it turns out, the menu covers a surprisingly (and intimidatingly) vast range of Chinese and Taiwanese food genres, running the gamut from meat skewers to hot pot and malatang. You’ll do very well for yourself if you stick to the most famous Taiwanese classics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you aren’t unnecessarily squeamish, you’ll start, as we did, with an order of the fried stinky tofu, which arrives at the table crisp-edged and deliciously pungent, served with all the standard accompaniments: pickled cabbage, soy paste dressing and a dollop of chili sauce. It’s about as tasty a version as you can find in the East Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b2b2b;font-weight: 400\">\u003cb>\u003cstrong>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"arts_13955884,arts_13951914,arts_13952823","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/span>\u003c/strong>\u003c/b>\u003c/span>The best way to sample a bunch of things is to order one of the bento boxes, which come with a big scoop of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13897498/mama-liu-lu-rou-fan-taiwanese-food-comic\">lu rou fan\u003c/a> (braised pork rice), pickles, sautéed greens and a marinated egg. We went with the fried pork chop — a nostalgic classic for anyone who’s ever bought a boxed lunch at a \u003ca href=\"https://www.eater.com/2019/3/6/18241749/bento-box-best-food-train-stations-taiwan\">train station in Taiwan\u003c/a>.

The noodles are thick and chewy. The generous chunks of beef shank and tendon are slow-cooked to a jiggly, luxurious tenderness. And the broth? Spicy and savory, heavy on the tongue-numbing Sichuan peppercorn — almost \u003ci>too \u003c/i>boldly flavorful for me to finish the entire bowl, making it perfect for sharing. It’s pure comfort food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ll have to come back again, with more stomach space or a larger group, to try the extensive selection of lu wei, a uniquely Taiwanese genre of cold, braised street snacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My usual worry with a place like Lounge Chinatown is that it’ll be too loud or too trendy — too many weekend karaoke warriors singing badly in public. But the truth is, the restaurant was busy during our visit but not exceptionally so. The vibe was more Chill Place for Quiet Conversation than it was Loud Party Zone.
