Louisahhh! and the Ten Things Not to Say to a DJ

While I’m perusing my RSS reader there’s one thing that makes me cringe and move to the next post faster than anything else—bloggers sounding like A&R pplz. Unless you’re a good writer it’s really easy to tell when someone’s feigning interest in something and that usually ends up giving me a worse impression of whatever subject is at hand than if I hadn’t even heard of it in the first place. I wish people would quit doing that!

Amongst the writers on which I can always count on for good, genuinely excited recommendations is Louisahhh!; a LA-via-NY DJ who’s half of Staccato and holds it down at Turntable Lab during those ungodly daylight hours. She’s way into house music and pretty much just posts stuff she’s crazy about. Which is great because she has impeccable taste (ie: pretty much the same as me) and is pretty funny too.

Over at her current home in blogtown Dream Big Dream Free she’s just posted a brilliant track from Chicago DJ/Producer Andre Harris called Ten Things Not to Say to a DJ. If you’re not a DJ, listen and learn. If you are, catch da lulz and be all “O MAN I HEARD THESE THINGS LIKE 8 TIEMS IN AN HOUR ONCE LOL”
