Name: Maleet Age: 25 Why he's Cool: Producer/DJ/Record Collector Where his family is from: Colombia Where He Lives: Elizabeth, NJ Maleet is a first generation American who made it his goal to expose the sounds of forgotten Latino musicians to a whole new generation of music fans. Maleet has discovered some of his most prized records in some pretty strange places. You might find him digging for albums anywhere — from the local beauty salon and barber shop, to the far reaches of Latin America! The only downside to his music quest? Developing allergies from the dust while flipping through record bins! But that's not going to stop this music hunter from continuing his search for the rare sounds of Latino artists gone by... Music: Music is his life.
