Flippin' Platters since 2002

With a sound reminiscent to the golden era of bathhouses and tea dances Jimmy DePre pushes out a legacy of queer culture to new generations through tasteful track selections and innovative mixing that can only be described as cruisey, boozey &  ambrosial.

Philadelphia native Jimmy DePre began his professional DJ career in 2002 at the age of 15 landing a job with iconic radio personality and DJ, Jerry Blavat. In 2009, he began his 10 year Friday & Saturday residency at Tavern on Camac, which in 2017 was voted “Best Dance Spot” by Philadelphia Magazine. During this time, gig highlights include a residency at Bobby Viteritti’s Classics Never Die and guest spots at Shep Pettibone’s summer poolside Tea Dances in Asbury Park. 

Committed to respecting the history and importance of the queer contribution to dance music, one of Jimmy’s biggest honors was being asked to play the weekend-long Fire Island celebration marking the 50 year inception of Tea Dance alongside Robbie Leslie, Max Rodriquez & Randy Bettis. Always curious about San Francisco, Jimmy visited in 2014 and fell in love. He played his first guest spot at Go BANG! in 2015 and quickly began traveling more and more frequently to the Bay Area. After guesting at various venues during his visits, Jimmy decided to move to Oakland in 2018. 

His knowledge, drive and unique style quickly led him to becoming a resident at Go BANG!. He’s since played, both solo and with his partner Jeremy Rosebrook, at parties put on by David Harness, Comfort & Joy, Big Muscle, Polyglamorous and Electroluxx, just to name a few. He currently spins a few times a month at Lookout and does guest spots in various Bay Area clubs and bars. In 2022, Jimmy along with Jim Hopkins became the residents for the monthly FILTH party at the SF Eagle. As Jimmy embarks on his 23rd year of sharing music, he’s excited to continue to share his passion of past, present and future with the dance floor.

Tony Johns is known for his impressive edits and remixes of various tracks, spanning genres like disco, funk, and house. Tony Johns’ remix process is quite fascinating and involves several key steps to transform original tracks into his unique edits. Here’s a general overview of how he approaches his remixes:Track Selection: Tony starts by choosing a track that resonates with him. He often looks for songs with strong melodies, vocals, or grooves that he can build upon.

Listening and Analysis: He listens to the track multiple times to understand its structure, key elements, and potential areas for enhancement. This helps him identify which parts to emphasize or modify.

Isolating Elements: Using digital audio workstations (DAWs) like Ableton Live or Logic Pro, Tony isolates specific elements of the track, such as vocals, basslines, or drum patterns. This allows him to manipulate these components individually.

Adding New Elements: He often adds new beats, synths, or instrumental layers to give the track a fresh feel. This could involve creating entirely new sections or enhancing existing ones.

Effects and Processing: Tony applies various effects like reverb, delay, and EQ to shape the sound. This step is crucial for blending the new elements with the original track seamlessly.

Arrangement: He rearranges the track to create a new structure that maintains the listener’s interest. This might involve extending certain sections, adding breakdowns, or creating build-ups.

Mixing and Mastering: Finally, Tony mixes all the elements together, balancing the levels and ensuring clarity. The mastering process polishes the track, making it sound cohesive and ready for release.

Tony’s remixes are known for their ability to breathe new life into classic tracks while maintaining the essence of the original. His attention to detail and creative approach make his edits stand out in the remix community.
