In 2007, Tha Real Chino partnered up with DJ Johnny Ka$h in an effort to push the “Top Flight DJ” label, where the duo released “Prescription Muzik”, “Durty Dollaz” and “Blowin Smoke In Yo Face”. Tha Real Chino eventually went on to release and create multiple “Slowed and Chopped ” mixtapes (A Slowed World), for some of Austin’s own hard hitters such as, The League of Extraordinary Gz, LNS Crew and Die Slo Entertainment. In 2012, Tha Real Chino teamed up with Ram of “Optimo Radio” to start the Top Flight Radio Show, a weekly support and dedication to some of Texas’ underground artists. The radio show has proven to enable him to showcase to a wider and more worldwide fan base. One of his first solo EP projects, "Reaching New Heights", was released in 2014. The collective collaborative included artists such as KPaul, Gerald G, Young B, S.Dot & more. Producers included, Chamothy The Great, Da Bosnian and Scott Pace.
While continuing to create music, Tha Real Chino also made time to film and edit videos, which became a second hobby for him. Teaming up with Power House Media, it became quite obvious of his skills behind the lens, which led to video productions that featured artists such as Propain, AJ Castillo, Miranda Gil, Yung Redd, Chalie Boy, Chingo Bling & many others. Combining his love for DJing and his skill behind a lens, he started mixing the videos with the slowed music and created a DVD entitled, “Comin Down Clean”. Recruiting help from none other than the owner and creator of TheScrewShop.com (Tosin - The Dotcom Don), the DVD continues to be a hit in the streets. Being picky isn’t always a bad thing… Choosing his collaborations wisely and putting his signature touch on tracks for remixes that only Tha Real Chino has uncompromisingly championed, he dedicates everything he seizes with quality and continues to master his crafts and push boundaries.
