  • Jean-Emmanuel Deluxe

    21st March 2014

    DJ, writer, performer, record label owner and all-around pop activist Jean-Emmanuel Deluxe was born in Rouen, the city of Joan of Arc, Gustave Flaubert and Marcel Duchamp. His mother was Portuguese and passed on to him a deep love of music with a saudade (a joyful form of melancholia) quality. After spending many of his childhood years drawing his favourite cartoon characters, Deluxe enrolled at Rouen Art School. He moved to Sheffield, England to take post-graduate courses. While there he met Pulp, Designer’s Republic and Warp Records. His interest in music led him to launch his own record labels, Come Together and Euro-Visions. He was the first to bring April March to the attention of French audiences and introduced her to Bertrand Burgalat (Tricatel), which resulted in some memorable collaborations. His latest record label, Martyrs Of Pop, has released music by artists such as Jay Alanski (Beautiful Losers) and Jacques Duvall (Leatherman), the men behind some of pop princess Lio’s best songs. Deluxe has written for the UK’s Nude and Shindig magazines, plus Roctober (in the USA) and Outré (Australia). He currently writes for Standard, Lui, Schnock and Rock & Folk in France. Having written several books in French, his first in English, Yé-Yé Girls Of 60s French Pop, was published in 2013 to rave reviews in Mojo, the Independent and the Telegraph.

    5th March 2015

    Sullivan began collecting records and Djing as a 12 year-old young ska-loving moon-stomping suedehead in South Wales in the early seventies and, after a spell as first a Northern soul boy and then a rare funk fan, was DJing in London from 1978. In 1981 he signed a significant record deal with his Latin funk jazz combo, Blue Rondo a la Turk, and in 1982 opened the Wag Club in Wardour Street, which he ran until 2001- DJing, organising nights and booking bands etc. Since then he’s DJ’d at events for the likes of Italian Vogue, The Face, ID and Sade - often slipping off to work in New York, Ibiza, Paris and LA. Today, he has his own radio show every Wednesday on Soho Radio, enjoys weekly residencies in Novikov and the Vinyl Bar and regularly plays the Groucho, the Thirst Bar in Soho and many private events and launch parties. He lives with his good lady Leah, 9-year-old son Finbar and cat Tuesday in West London.
