Ep. 6 - Danny Tenaglia

Danny Tenaglia Has Seen It All Behind The Decks From Yoko Ono to
overdoses, the New York legend talk about 30 years of DJing on the
Rave Curious Podcast. The first Rave Curious Podcast of 2016 offers
a nice long conversation with New York's genre-hopping veteran
Danny Tenaglia. From his legendary series of NYC residencies in the
'90s and early '00s—Roxy, Twilo, Vinyl—to his equally renowned
marathon parties at Winter Music Conference, DT (as his fans call
him) has been at the epicenter of the dance music world for 30
years. And while it's been mostly good times, like hanging at the
Paradise Garage and working with Yoko Ono, he's not afraid to
detail the challenges he's seen after three decades in clubland.
"It was too much becoming about the ketamine, the crystal meth, the
GHB," he admits, regarding the crash of the New York scene in the
late-90s when he first became a star. "Ambulances, hospital
visits...the community boards got sick of it." And while he admits
to a few nights of early-2000s Ibiza excess during our hour-long
conversation in his Hollywood hotel, the 54-year-old Tenaglia is a
shining example of a DJ who's maintained his youthful spirit. Learn
