Absolutely brilliant.
Move ya Body encapsulates the feeling, the rush of being in the scene and all the caveats that come with it.
And being a pioneer being a trailblazer and the price of that. To me, It is also a companion to the audiobook last night DJ saved my life by Bill Brewster, & Frank Broughton.
It was amazing. I cried. I laughed. I side eye’d
Black is cool until you, deem it’s not.
long live house!
