Rusty Egan: Music for misfits.

Rusty Egan is one of the most influential DJs ever. He chose the music that went on to shape and define the movement that became the New Romantics. It was music for misfits. Inspired by the German band Kraftwerk, Bowie and American bands like Devo, Rusty chose the soundtrack to the post-punk movement that shaped a generation. His choices influenced the way bands made music and the music that was played in clubs across the world. Along with co-collaborator Steve Strange, Rusty started the legendary Blitz club, was one of the founding members of Visage and was the drummer in the Rich Kids. He is a total legend in the music industry and is still producing the most amazing tracks. Listen here: https://soundcloud.com/rusty-egan I was walking through central London one night and bumped into him. He was wearing wonderful loafers and the warmest smile. Fortune favours the brave and a couple of months after asking him I found myself in a soho studio recording this sparkling conversation. There are laughs, drum beats, stories, and even tears. Dive in. He is @rustyegan on Instagram and you'll find him on all the music streaming services. His work with Visage was epoch-defining. Thanks Rusty.
