We asked Wu Tang's Raekwon and Dallas DJs and tastemakers for their favorite love songs this Valentine's Day.
Romance and love are a game of effort — it’s not about what’s said, but about what people do. And come Valentine's Day, your gift can make memories that truly make toes curl and sparks fly. Earrings from Tiffany’s are always a good idea, but courtship flourishes with a handwritten, witty, heartfelt poem and a personally curated playlist.
We canvassed North Texas-based DJs, rappers, new wave stars and record shop pros with a simple, yet nearly impossible question: “If you were building a Valentine’s Day playlist, what are two songs you would choose? And you can only use one of your own productions.” Our panel spans the gamut from '90s new wave artists to Wu Tang Clan collaborators, record shop clerks and DJs and producers. The DJs on our panel are easy to find around town — DJ Kowboy is often playing at Lady Love, Double Wide and even unsuspecting, casual back-to-backs with. MGM Productions is a resident at J. Whiskey’s in Oak Cliff, and Inzo is a regular at the Dallas, Addison and Grand Prairie Vidorra locations.
"One for you, Yazoo, and one for me, T-4-2," Gillian says."Undoubtedly, new wave long songs is a category dominated by The Cure, but 'Only You' from Yazoo’s legendary 1982album would receive several first place votes for best overall. And 'More Than Ever,' is like every song T-4-2 has released, it expresses inner feelings they might not typically say out loud."
