Justin Strauss, Worldwide FM

I'm hosting a Worldwide FM show with NYC DJ/production legend and feet-on-the-ground sweetheart Justin Strauss tomorrow 1:00-3:00pm GMT.

On the chitchat menu: the Mudd Club, the Ritz, Area, friendships with Ivan Baker / François Kevorkian / Larry Levan / Keith Haring, the dark days and nights of the mid/late 1980s and 1990s, the club kids era of Tunnel and Limelight, and staying true to one's musical and social values in a hectically-commercial world.

On the music menu: 40 years of recordings that caused a stir in NYC.

Tune in live at Worldwide FM and catch up at wrldwd.fm/tlawrence2 x

Love Injection on WWFM

I was on Worldwide FM interviewing these lovely people--Love Injection editors/DJs/party hosts Barbara Bertisch and Paul Raffaele. First track: Karl Hector & Nicolas Tounga "Ngunga Yeti Fofa (The Joaquin Joe Claussell Electric Afrika version)". Always good to see Victoria Topping's gorgeous artwork for the awesome On the Corner records in the WWFM studio! The show will be archive here.

Between the Liner Notes interview

Matthew Billy, who tracked me down during my NYC L&D trip and interviewed me on my return to London, has published a radio doc about the history of disco, “The Dance Floor Doesn’t Lie”. It features the insights of the disco promoter legends Ray Caviano and Joseph Carvello plus added thoughts from me and co-host of Sound Opinions Jim DeRogatis. I haven’t had a chance to listen yet but the feedback on Ray’s FB page was very up:
