DJ Sprinkles' debut full length album released August, 2008, by Mule Musiq (Japan: mulemusiq.com & myspace.com/mulemusiq), continues with themes from 1998's "Sloppy 42nds: A tribute to the 42nd Street transsexual clubs destroyed by Walt Disney's buyout of Times Square" (a track recently featured on Ame's "Coast2Coast" DJ mix compilation for NRK Records). While the world celebrates the revial of New York House Music, constructing utopian fictions about the genre as it goes along, DJ Sprinkles retreats deep into the bowels of house. This is the rhythm of empty midtown dancefloors resonating with the difficulties of transgendered sex work, black market hormones, drug & alcohol addiction, racism, gender & sexual crises, unemployment, and censorship.
