Interview with Jean-Philippe Guillaume, who is the creator and engineer of Mizikpam.com, a Haitian music aggregator similar to Pandora, Last.Fm, and Spotify. He moved to South Florida from Port-au-Prince. His grandfather was a saxophonist and his great uncle was the bandleader Raoul Guillaume. Guillaume talks about the progression of Haitian music, the widespread style of genres on the website, and his general knowledge about the "ancestry" and story elements of the country's popular music. He also traces the history of the organization, the listenership, and the presence of Haitian music in South Florida. Interviewer: Kevin Mason Length of interview (in minutes): 39:30 Miami, FL
