To me, female DJs seem as rare as a socially secure person on University Challenge. I have realised this by DJing on the side up North, everything from doing the odd wedding and club night to, most recently, trying to entertain a large room of Ting Tings’ fans before their gig. I'd like to point out that I'm not a full-time professional DJ. I am in fact a student in my last year of University who DJs on the side (instead of watching merciless amounts of Deal Or No Deal). Neither am I claiming to be any Annie ...

Jermaine Stewart's 1986 hit "Jody" is the subject of this week's Jheri Curl Fridays column

It’s the dance equivalent of the rainbow sponge spreading waves of glory over your entire body. Seriously, Neon Indian, Craft Spells, Ellie Goulding, Twin Shadow, Wild Nothing, Jermaine Stewart, actually lots of motherfucking big 80′s jams, a few surprises, drunk elated ladies who are ready to get sweaty with random boys on the dance floor.

Today, December 1st is World AIDS day, and last year, more than 33 million people were estimated to be HIV positive, some 2.6 million people became newly infected with the virus, and an estimated 1.8 million people died from AIDS. Many musicians died from AIDS, some well known and some less known, but all of them made an impact on the music scene, and AIDS changed the music world. Here are some famous musicians who all died of this terrible disease: Perhaps, the most famous of all was the flamboyant, Zanzibar-born, Queen frontman, Freddie Mercury, who died when ...

Oh my! I've been roused out of my torpor not only because Dearest Marcy and Dearest Tricia --two of the finest examples of female pulchritude and luminosity in the podcast/blogosphere firmament-- provided the ever titillating Contrast Podcast's most recent theme, but also because that theme happens to be: Naked!! I mean, if you can't get excited by the prospect of wodges of excellent choonz coupled with the heady, free rush of nudity, then your soul must be a dry, withered thing, indeed. Speaking of dry, withered things, this CP reminded me of a little beach walk ...

Here's an interesting spin on memorabilia auctions - you buy a framed geegaw, and get a slice of publishing royalties, too : SongVest, the company that reinvented the music memorabilia business by offering the ultimate fan collectible -- the songs themselves -- has announced their next major online auction will take place August 15-22 at songvest.com and will include Billboard Top 40 hits "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off" performed by Jermaine Stewart, "Miss You Like Crazy" performed by Natalie Cole, and the international hit "Clothes Off!!" performed by Gym Class Heroes. You're getting to bid for 25 ...

Idolator emeritus Jess Harvell forwarded me the news of a teeny slice of the performance royalties for the late Jermaine Stewart's 1986 anti-sex, pro-cherry-wine screed "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off" being up for auction with the subject line "Finally, Idolator can have the theme song it's always deserved." (Although maybe he was referring to Gym Class Heroes' Patrick Stump-featuring, Stewart-interpolating "Clothes Off!," which also will have a similar part of itself on the auction block next month? Regardless.) Anyway, with a minimum bid of $1,000 (plus fees), I don't think that either ...

1986, Jermaine Stewart te dit qu’”il y a pas besoin d’enlever ses fringues pour prendre du bon temps et faire la fête toute la nuit”. Un dimanche soir, prôner l’amour platonique alors qu’on a plutôt envie de sauter partout, c’est assez contradictoire. Nanana-nana naaaa naaaa etc Credit : Jermaine Stewart - We don’t have to take our [...]
