Bernardino Santos Carpio

WHO ARE YOU? "Bernardino Santos Carpio. I was the first grandson born in my family, so I got all the surnames. Bernardino is my grandmother's name, Santos is my mother's, and Carpio is my dad's."

IN MY 9-TO-5 LIFE I'M A: "Spiritual guide and a hairdresser at House of Envy for two more days until I move to the Steel Hair Room. I'm also a DJ-I play anything that equates to horizontal dancing, which is house music. My motto is: if you keep the girls moving, you know the party will be rocking."

IF YOU'RE BUYING, I'LL HAVE: "A double Crown-ginger. The only other drink I would have is a tequila shot."

THE BEST SHOW I EVER SAW WAS: "Soundwave, a three-day party in Ucluelet. The people I roll with, they run it so I'm there from Wednesday to Wednesday. There's a real sense of belonging, a sense of family there. My other favourite show was seeing Metallica open for Guns N' Roses at the CNE Gardens in '93. Metallica just blew my mind."

I WISH PEOPLE WOULD SHUT UP ABOUT: "Racism. There's a real negative energy to it when we're talking about it all the time. We already know it exists, so we should instead put more positive energy towards what we achieve."

THE LAST CONCERT T-SHIRT I BOUGHT WAS: "It was a Tragically Hip, Another Roadside Attraction shirt at the Market Fairgrounds in Toronto. Yup, I like my rock 'n' roll."

IN THE MOVIE OF MY LIFE, I'D BE PLAYED BY: "Bruce Lee. He's all about energy transfer and I'm all about the energy."

I HEAR YOU LOOK SOLID AND FEEL DEADLY ON THE DANCE FLOOR: "I love music so much and I usually dance so hard that I have to go back to the dance floor the next day to look for my ass that I shook off my body."
