Surf Mojo presents Mik'kh'iel, a documentary produced at Marin TV!

Mik'khi'el is house music royalty and an accomplished recording artist. He has performed on many hit albums and his music has been sampled by the likes of Janet Jackson and many others. He came on the scene in the late Seventies as a DJ playing disco parties. His vocal talent attracted a host of producers and he became one of the original creators of house music. Mik'khi'el, in collaboration with documentarian and Marin TV member Rick Pruett, has created a documentary about his career and the origins of house music which inspired it. Mik'kh'iel is now working on a book that explores his adventure, it is called Race To The Dance Floor.

The documentary premiers tonight at 10:00 PM. Check the broadcast schedule below:

The Title of Your Marin TV Series (or Special/s):

I've produced 18 "specials" for Marin TV including "'Southeast - Life in the Alaska Panhandle," "The White Bag," and "Cuba, Libre."


In a nutshell, describe your CMCM series (or special/s): 

"Southeast" is a visual essay about Alaska's remote Panhandle region; it has been viewed on 27 public access stations across the U.S. serving over 1 million households.

"The White Bag" is a spoof on the 1940s-1950s film noir "cops and robbers" and spy thrillers. It was a CMCM class project in which I play the "Ace of Spies." 

"Cuba, Libre" is a documentary that traces this history of travel to Cuba by Americans from the early decades of the 20th century until the Cuban revolution, and in the last 20-odd years since Americans resumed visits to that island nation.
