Never did I think we would feature a book by a MAN but trust me this one is an exception. Mark Ronson’s memoir “Night People” is a wonderful little time capsule of music and clubbing in 90’s New York City. This book perfectly captures the grit and glamour of nightlife well also getting me interested in just what it takes to be a DJ (who knew). BRB time to google every club and celebrity listed and further engross myself in the fact that nothing will ever be like it was in the 90’s.
