My God Is Better Than Your God

I Also Tried To Avoid Doing Obvious Dance Records.

The Fabulous Side Of Taboo Was Dressing Up And Dancing Like No One Was Watching You. There Were No Rules. You Had Jeffrey Hinton Playing Every Kind Of Music. It Was Like Going Back To When I Used To Deejay At Planet In '79, Where You'd Mix In Nutty Things Like Hip-hop Or Reggae Or The Sound Of Music [1965] Or Other Film Soundtracks - Whatever.

I Think These Days, As An Artist, You Have To Be Slightly Entrepreneurial. ...nobody Really Sells Records Anymore.

The Taboo Scene Was A Kind Of Deconstructed Version Of The New Romantics. The Taboo Crowd Was Using A Lot Of The Visual Ideas That Had Already Been Used. I Remember The First Time I Spotted Leigh Bowery And Trojan Parading Around In Clubs: They Were In Their "pakis From Outer Space" Look, And The Makeup Was Quite Similar To One Of My Old Looks, Because I Was Quite Fond Of Wearing Blue, Green, Or Yellow Foundation, And So I Was Pretty Dismissive Of Them At First.

Leigh [bowery] Would Make Up Stories About People Committing Suicide Or Going On Hunger Strikes Because They Were Refused Entry At The Door.
