A real ahh moment I can’t wait … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Wild Fantasy live @ Disco Deviant

It will celebrate those first dancefloor stepping-stones be they … Continue reading Twelve Inches: Help needed to create a snapshot of our dancefloor lives

Madonna puts apparently meaningful words in a line to sell skincare
Oh Madonna, Madonna, Madonna, Madonna. What are you like? Flogging me a skin product that appears to only work if one can parade around life solely shot in black and white by some hip film director isn’t your greatest moment.
