Arthur Bray, DJ

How would you describe your own music taste?

Himalayan groove. Back of the bus head-nod, throat-singing over 140 bpm.

What makes you dance?

Michael Jackson, Fela Kuti, LCD Soundsystem, G-Unit.

What was the last cool party you attended?

We did a party with the homies at Diamond Supply & Co. off Sunset Boulevard in LA at an old porn DVD store called Adults Only. The Cozy Boys from ASAP Mob played alongside Guillaume Berg of Bromance Records. It was fun!

We are back in the 80s. What exactly would you be doing and with whom would you be hanging out?

I would probably try and jump the queue at Studio 54 with my rat tail, but fail miserably. Hanging with David Bowie at The Blitz would be pretty rad.

Can you name us some fashion designers you discovered recently?

Liam Hodges’s recent LFWM collection was fire. O Thongthai is making some pretty cool jewelry, and shout out to Les Benjamins of course!

If you’d have to wear one sneaker for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Nike Air Max 90s.

You are out on a Friday night in East London. Where would you go?

Probably Haggerston for a drink and Visions for a dance.

DJ Rashad – Drop Juke Out
