It was an era of no phones and no social media. You went out for the music and dancing.
The DJs did not take the spotlight, they gave that to the music. It wasn't a concert, but a gathering.
From circuit parties to deep house hideaways to all the tech, tribal, euro, and dance spots in between.
There was no Spotify nor Shazam. You had to go out to hear your favorite tracks, and good luck trying to id them.
The only influencers were the promoters, drag queens, divas, and Lula.💥
