**_Marvin Gardens’ Playlist:_**

**”Simple Girl (Tiger & Woods Remix)” – Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr.**

My friend Dylan sent this song my way a few weeks ago. It’s a great early evening jam. Mmm, that sexy bassline.

**”Cool Runnings” – Perseus**

This too is something I’d play early in the night. It’s a good warmup tune. Very tropical vibes.

**”Burnin'” – Gigamesh**

This one explains itself. Great dance floor edit of the 1979 classic. Gettin’ loose, y’all!

**”Bread and Butter” – 2 Guys in Venice**

A beefed-up version of the original that smacks you right in the head. I’d drop this in the middle of a set, just so I could shake my own booty.

**”Wow” – Chameo**

I found this banger surfing the web late one night. This is definitely a climax track, heavy enough to make all the ladies wet.

**_Adam Boisclair ([BWAHA](http://soundcloud.com/bwaha))_**

**Age?** 28

**Where are you from?** Cincinnati, Ohio

**Why did you become a DJ?** To expose the music that I liked to dance to in private to the public.

**What inspired your nickname?** Someone attempted to pronounce my name, and I corrected them, and they responded something close to, “Aww, it’s very French like ‘Bwahaha, I’ll cook pour vous?! Oui non?'” Not only because it was a nickname, but because it’s also a maniacal laugh. 

**Your DJ style in one word?** Dirty.

**Favorite part of DJing?** Seeing people do crazy things on the dance floor.

**Is this your full time job?** I recently took over managing Eastside Tavern, which now occupies most of my time.

**Favorite genre?** Hip-hop.

**Band?** Tie between The Stooges and Beastie Boys.

**Song?** With one of the best guitar riffs ever: “20th Century Boy” – T. Rex

**How did you get into DJing?** I have loved music all my life and wanted to dance with friends, which led me to DJing; it’s just so damn fun.

**How long have you been DJing?** Five years.

**Favorite Dirty Disco theme?** It has to be “most offensive dance-in-your-underpants party ever!” I made underwear with “BWAHA” printed on the butt and rocked all the songs with just the most ridiculously filthy lyrics you’ve ever heard. 

**_BWAHA’s playlist:_**

**”Reaching Out (Fred Falke Remix)” – Nero feat. Hall & Oates **

Who doesn’t like Hall & Oates?

**”Blitzkrieg Bop (Tittsworth Remix)” – Ramones**

This song always gets people excited, and I love rock remixes.

**”Le7els/Good Feeling (Avicii/Flo Rida)” – DJ Zimmie**

DJ Zimmie is one of those guys that releases tracks and you say, “Why didn’t I think of that?” Here he just adds an Etta James intro that will be a great break for the crowd after a few high energy songs. A break, yes, but a very short one because it goes right into one of the most popular songs of 2011.

**”The New Style” – Beastie Boys**

I’ve had the breakdown at the end queued up before just in case something goes fail whale but recently have been mixing it into different tracks. It has a great bassline that kicks in after, “feel the beat mmm drop!”

**”Blowfly’s Rapp” – Blowfly**

Blowfly was the first dirty rapper and alter ego of Clarence Reid. I love filthy lyrics because it just reminds me that you can’t take music that seriously… just have fun with it.

**_Leroy Lee ([L3R0Y](http://soundcloud.com/l3r0y))_**

**Age?** 27

**Where are you from?** I was born in Akron, Ohio and have lived in Columbia for about 13 years.

**Why did you become a DJ?** I love dancing, and obviously I’m really passionate about music. So I feel like it was only natural for me to be interested in DJing. I have a large music collection, and it’s an honor to be able to enjoy it with other people in such a unique way.

**What inspired your nickname?** I used to go by DJ “Peeroy.” But, I decided to abandon that this past year. I decided to go by my real name, with a “leetspeak” twist.

**Your DJ style in one word?** Intense.

**Favorite part of DJing?** I truly embrace the art of mixing and blending songs and moving between different genres. I like to keep people on their toes and bring the energy level up as high as possible.

**Is this your full time job?** I’m a full time Ph.D. student studying nuclear engineering.

**Favorite genre? Band? Song?** Although it’s hard to pinpoint one genre or artist, my favorite genres to DJ include indie-dance, disco-house and French electro.

**How did you get into DJing?** Some of my close friends were DJs at a former nightclub in town and helped lead me in the right direction.

**How long have you been DJing?** For about five years.

**Favorite Dirty Disco theme?** The nerd party theme is definitely my favorite. It’s also not very hard for me to play the part.

 **_L3R0Y’s Playlist_**

**”Los Angeles” — Louis La Roche**

**”Rap Music” – Bit Funk** 

**”Fantasy (AB’s Return to Disco New York Mix)” – Breakbot**

Louis La Roche, Bit Funk and Breakbot are among my three favorite producers in the nu-disco/disco-house scene right now. Although these are fairly popular songs within the genre, it’s rare to hear this style of music in clubs in the Midwest, especially in Columbia.

**”Midnight City (Alcala Remix)” – M83**

At heart, I’m an indie music guy and love to play anything with an indie aesthetic. A lot of people love M83 and the song “Midnight City,” and this remix is just as intense as the original, but it’s sped up and hits a bit harder, which is perfect for a peak-of-the-night moment at Dirty Disco.

**”Secret Weapon (Alex Metric Remix)” – The Whip**

This is the perfect song to put a frenzied dance floor over the top.
