I’m preparing myself for the White Isle. For some time in Ibiza. For those moments chasing the sunset across the island, for sand between my toes, for cafe con leche, for Sunday at Space, for dancing on the beach, for time – such precious time – with my missus. And this is getting me in the Eivissa frame of mind. Thank you Tomas. Tomas Barfod’s … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Tomas Barfod – Broken Glass
Here’s the disco rub. I need to know what Donna Summer’s I Feel Love symbolises to you. Why is it important to you? When did you first hear it and how did you react? What does it represent? Is a gay thing? A coming out thing? Or is it just one of those universal moments in music that means something to everyone? Does it only … Continue reading How did you Feel Love? A Donna Summer question

Expect a soundtrack of good time tunes from DJs Pete Haywood, … Continue reading Brighton Danceteria / Lovebox Warm Up Party: 03.06.12
Our neighbours are mourning. For the peace they once had. Since the news broke last week me and the missus have been keeping it Summer. Donna Summer. Our queen disco, so sorely missed.

No matter what may … Continue reading Donna Summer: A disco dear too soon departed

I have so many words to write as I head towards the end of term but a distraction this sweet is always welcomed. ‘Soul Speaker’ rocked the DSDeeper Rebel crowd early on, all gentle like, and strangely addictive. Part of a EP of especially fine beats that include the sweet as ‘ I See You (You See Me)’. Time to get down. Deep, down, down. … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Electronic Youth ‘Soul Speaker’

There is something glorious about a decent boogie with your disco dears. Danceteria at The Font delivered such gloriousness this weekend as a bunch of house loving queers and their dears danced till late in a venue that brought back memories of the old days with promise for the future. Chrissy Darling and Jonny Woo sashayed their way through some cheeky 80s electronica, Pete Haywood … Continue reading Dancing with the disco dears at Danceteria

The below video captures perfectly … Continue reading Didn’t we have a lovely time Down The Back of the Sofa
