| DJ Booth with Simon Allen | ||||
|
|
He's opened for The Stanton Warriors, makes pulsating nu-disco and house under his Lapelle moniker and has just co-launched a new indie night. The man lurves music. Put your hands together for Simon Allen, AKA Just Some Kid...
One thing you might not know about me is... I really, really dont like people touching my nose. Is that weird? My worst ever job was... Working on a chicken farm, picking up dead chickens. That job literally stank. Of chicken s*** and death. My favourite ever record is... There's so many. Right now, top of the list is S.O.S. Band - 'Just Be Good To Me' (Extended mix). A close second at the moment is Radiohead - 'Nude'. Beautiful, beautiful tune. I spend all my money on... My rockstar lifestyle. Haha, not really though. New equipment for my studio is a big one - working on a few tunes under my alter ego Lapelle at the moment. Watch this space! I'm really proud of... Always sticking to my guns muscially. It always pays off! I can't live without... Air. Food. Shelter? Haha, probably my Macbook actually, which nearly died at our last Loaded night at Casa Latina when it tried to drink an ice cold beverage in the middle of my set. My biggest DJ achievement to date is.... Dropping Duran Duran 'Girls on Film' to a packed club and everyone going completely bezerk. Strong call. Perfect moment! If you could DJ in any decade which would it be... The 80s. Playing proper electro and real house music. I want it to be '88 and to be the first dude to drop Inner City 'Good Life'. My biggest DJ skill is... Hopping from one end of the spectrum to the other throughout my set. I'm not a politician but... Licences for performers should be scrapped. Simon for Mayor?! Simon plays at Loaded, Casa Latina on Friday July 29. |
