Live Session with Akil

More than 10 years ago, Akil Quirindongo had a hobby that turned into a vision. During the online music sharing boom of the early 2000s, he thought of a way to bring Caribbean music into the homes of people who were missing their islands. At the same time, he wondered if he could pull off other music genres as well. He could, and he did. His creativity knew no bounds; as his listeners grew, so did his library, his network, and his vision. A true computer genius, he started making flyers and doing other advertisement. He realized that there was a real market, and he went for it. He made a social music network suited for anyone, but his fellow Curaçaoans especially appreciated a place of their own online.
