David Carpio «Mr Boogie»
From the booth of the 750 to Los Guayacuchos
Discjockey from Puerto Ordaz. By his own account, he was the resident discjockey of the Miniteca 750 between 1983 and 1987 —alongside John Dávila— and spent time in the booth of the Club Regine in 1984. Since 1989 he has been part of the gaita group Los Guayacuchos, today as co-owner, and he remains active as a DJ in a duo with José Luis Rojas. He is part of the CMTK Radio team.

Resident discjockey of the 750 (1983–1987)
David Carpio, “Mr Boogie”, recalls that he took his first steps in 1983 in the booth of the Miniteca 750 —Juan Carlos “Tungo” García's outfit—, where he was resident discjockey alongside John Dávila: the two of them led the 750 for about four years, until in 1987 he left the crew to continue his university studies.
The booth of the Club Regine (1984)
In 1984 he was also a discjockey at the Club Regine, the discotheque on Carrera Guasipati in Puerto Ordaz run by Oscar Simoza and remembered for its themed parties and its Sunday matinees.
Los Guayacuchos: charrasca, console and company (since 1989)
In 1989 he joined Los Guayacuchos —the gaita group from Puerto Ordaz that in 2023 celebrated its 50 years (1973–2023) under the motto “la propia gaita”— as its resident charrasca player. When the group made a major investment in audio equipment for its shows and concerts in 1992, he became its official sound engineer. Today he remains in the group as investor and co-owner, together with its founders Enrique “Kike” Flores Fuenmayor and Freddy Darío Fernández: the three of them run the company Guayacuchos, C.A.
