Jams of the Week Now Up At TSGGTGM! Plus DJ Heauxmeaux
February 19th, 2008
Just a quick heads-up to all my music homepersons: I’ve just posted a new “Jams of the Week” article over the my refunct music blog, The Spacing Guild Guide to Good Music, spotlighting Kenna, The Kills, Adam Green, and Olga Kouklaki. Pretty diverse explosion of music happening over there, so I daresay you should click this specific link and learn ye something new about how sounds are put together in order to make the human heart rev up!
Also, while I’ve got you ear concerning music, I’ve got a confession to make: I love gay-bar house music. The gayer it is, the better I like it. I am thoroughly heterosexual, but the sheer discotronic exuberance of funky house, vocal house, disco house, and just about every other form of *house has fueled many a marathon dance and/or writing session here at HPL Laboratories of Pennsylvania (a.k.a. my house). A year or two ago, a buddy of mine challenged me to write an actual house song—and so I did. I’m sure he was expecting something droning, groaning, and evil, like a house remix of a Skinny Puppy song…and yet, what he got was a stonecold ultra-catchy, dance-floor-igniting number entitled (with tongue firmly in cheek) “The Gay! (It’s Catching)”.
Well, I had to release the song under some name, so I chose (again, with tongue literally protruding through cheek by this point) the name DJ Heauxmeaux.
Few have heard this track over the years, but now, since I’ve been in the mood to write a lot more house music lately to counter the winter blahs I’ve been feeling, I’ve created a MySpace page for DJ Heauxmeaux featuring, at present only “The Gay! (It’s Catching)” and a picture of a sexy guy in a Santa hat.
However, I’m currently putting the touches on two new DJ Heauxmeaux songs: “Trouser Rouser” and “A Spy in Da Hizzouse of Luv”, both of which shall be uploaded within at most a week or so. Keep your ears peeled, as I’ll probably cross-post them all here as well, just to make sure that I smack as many people as possible upside the head with my fauxmosexuality.

If you're still coming out on Friday, you should make me a CD of your stuff, good stuff that I can play in my paintin' studio. I rarely get any new music.
