One of the most revered house music artists in the NYC scene has taken a highly questionable new direction in his career. NYC's Larry Tee has teamed up with several 'celebs', for an album that seems to celebrate superficiality, glamour and all things plastic.
We're pretty sure that Larry, a true pioneer in the US club scene, has produced his Club Badd album purely as a gimmick to expose the anomalies of the so-called glamorous side of electronic music (and Hollywood, and reality shows, and celebrity worshipping, and lifestyle, and...). Guest stars to appear on the album come in the form of Perez Hilton, Princess Superstar and Amanda Lepore, but also Christopher Just and Sebastian Leger, while its tracks hold names such as Hipster Girl, and Louis Vuitton.
Larry Tee is one of the key figures within the US house music industry as a DJ, producer and promoter, having collaborated with a high number of big names since the early eighties. He helped launch the careers of Scissor Sisters, Fischerspooner and Peaches, while he's also credited for coining the the term Electroclash. Larry Tee's new album is out now and available on iTunes.
