Tracks of Our Queers
Fascinating LGBTQ+ people explore the soundtracks to their queer journeys through one track, one album, and one artist. Activists, trailblazers, and icons help Andy Gott piece together the precious relationship that queer people have with music.
Tracks of Our Queers
Simon Graser / Simonetti, DJ
Simon Graser is a DJ and nightlife curator based in Naarm/Melbourne, and performs as Simonetti.
He co-founded the Melbourne party CONFIDE, a love letter to the roots of house, and a means for relief, release, and respect. Five points if you know the iconic Australian song it was named for.
We discuss music by DASCO, Scissor Sisters, and of course, Kylie Minogue.
Follow Simonetti, Club CONFIDE, and Minus 18 here.
