†FROM DJ PAUL V. In August 1987, Kurt Cobain was a 20-year-old living in Washington state, working at a Polynesian restaurant, and in his first band called Fecal Matter (which became Nirvana two years later). It's also when Rick Astley's ubiquitous, recently-exalted debut single was #1 on just about every pop chart. If Kurt heard the hit at the time, he probably would never imagine rolling with Rick Astley. Or maybe Rick was Kurt's favorite, ginger pop star? We'll never know, but we do know this: Smells Like Teen Spirit has been mashed more times than a farmer's crop of potatoes, yet it still kicks major ass. As for Astley, hearing Never Gonna Give You Up brings us back to a more happy-smiley era. So pairing Rick with Kurt is like striking cheesetastic bombastic gold: Kurt gets to roll and Rick gets to rock, and we all get to wear white trench coats and mousse our hair. And we can thank Bootie Berlin's DJ Morgoth for crafting this veritable internet sensation. Achtung, indeed!
PS to my LA peeps: Speaking of DJ Morgoth, he's our special guest DJ at Bootie LA, this Saturday, March 6th at The Echoplex. He'll be dropping his uniquely rockin' mashes along with myself, Adrian, & Mysterious D. We've got our dance crew R.A.I.D. whipping up another fabtastic dance routine - AND, you can win tickets to see Little Boots with Dragonette next week at The El Rey (I'll be DJing that show, too!)
