- Music
For the Record is a conversation series where we speak with all manner of music heads — DJs, music journos, indie label captains, record shop owners, listening bar kingpins, et al — about their stories + the music that makes them.

Michelle Lhooq is a writer who, by some combination of tenacity and youthful stupidity, decided to make a career out of being really, really good at partying. She was born in Singapore, an anti-hedonic country that William Gibson famously called “Disneyland with the death penalty,” and growing up under its extreme restrictions on assorted freedoms made her obsessed with drugs and nightlife like a bad kink. These days, like every romantic-turned-cynic, she prefers complaining loudly about the vanities of the rave scene – although when she is in a good mood, she also sometimes throws her own psychedelic parties in Los Angeles, where she is currently based. Her work has been published in The Guardian, New York Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, and her gonzo newsletter Rave New World.
