A moody synth-pop favorite from 1982, written and produced by Peter Godwin. This track started cold and faded at the end so I created a more DJ friendly edit so it could be programmed easier in a set.

Ronny - To Have And Have Not (Jimmy DePre Edit)

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.

A DJ and event producer since 2019, Service has been the premier selector for the online cult Soft Boys Radio Club; resident curator for Booty Worship’s amplified sound; a freeform radio show on KUNM since successfully relocating to the American Southwest; and a reputation as instigator of late-night happenings on impromptu dance floors throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

Service’s DJ sets never pander, and offer generous excitement. Delving deep into the annuls of sensual synth-pop, 120 attic house, mutant disco, freak beat komische, and percussive obscurities, European one-offs and DIY darlings are vaulted to a triumphant afterlife. Dynamic and attuned, Service gives the floor an idiosyncratic response to the needs of the collective through a journey of sound.

Beyond six years of curation – a lifelong trait that goes beyond music – Service is a devoted community member, backyard gardener, and artist.

Think Service for your creative needs!
