Mike's father, Miguel Triay is the most respected Radio Engineer in the country
,responsible for massive broadcasting projects both in South Florida and Puerto
Rico.Mike Jr.was the producer/remixer of the English version of the worlwide hit :"
La Macarena"There is no doubt that music is our passion. Unfortunately this
business is not kind and most people who work in it only care about one
thing....themselves... and true talent often gets cast aside in favor of behind the
scenes deals and strategies to stay in "power" for as long as possible in this very
unstable line of work. Alliances are formed and those who shine by way of their
talent are often squashed by the powers that be. Radio Formats rely on " research" .
Most stations play "safe" music ,in other words stuff you're tired of listening to. So
alot of artists get lost in the cracks,especially those who did not achieve
"mainstream" or radio play.
So we took matters into our own hands,hey it's not everyone that has access to a
full blown radio production studio 24 hours a day. We decided to create a "radio"
program for people our age with the music we used to listen to ,plus.... the music
that would catch our attention today. Throw in a little Salsa and those slow jams that
mad us run towards that girl we had our eye on all night and we had a program WE
would listen to and hopefully everyone else too.
We were right.........In the first week we had over 2000 subscribers on I Tunes . The
Emails were overhelming. We had connected with an audience that had been
overlooked,an audience that didn't like Hip Hop ,Reggeaton andother urban styles
that wasn't really listening to Radio anymore.
Our program is 100% authentic mixed the way DJs used to mix with the information
you want to hear about these artists that you never knew before.Even the actual
artists themselves in many cases have lent their voices to the program. It's exciting
,very exciting to be able to talk to and play the music of these great musicians and
vocalists who otherwise may not have an outlet to keep their music alive.
Open House Radio or OHR is a station I always dreamed I could listen to, and
MILLIONS OF YOU seem to agree.
Mike and I Thank you for letting us serve you in this manner.
