Getting the train to London and back the other day gave me the opportunity to read DJ Paulette’s book, ‘Welcome To The Club – The Life And Lessons Of A Black Woman DJ'.

It outlines her DJ trajectory, both highlights and lowlights, starting in the early-‘90s at Manchester’s Number 1, initially as a go-go dancer, then DJ. Brought in by Flesh, the legendary gay night launched at The Haçienda in 1991, she oversaw the P***y Parlour, downstairs in the ‘Gay Traitor’ bar. Her career really took off as the decade unfolded, not only as a touring DJ, but a TV presenter. She also worked in the record industry for labels like Mercury, Azuli and Defected.

But the lifestyle, as the book illustrates, isn’t just parties and good times, but a constant round of hotel rooms/airports/long drives – throw on top lack of sleep/unhealthy living, and mix it together with those twin temptations of drink and drugs, and you’re on a slippery slope.

From 2004, an eight-year Paris escape had its ups, but also downs, leading to an ill-fated two-year Ibiza move. Failing to gain a foothold, she ending up playing long sets for low pay in bars and restaurants. A friend woke her up to this undervaluation of her own abilities, resulting in a Manchester return, where she licked her wounds and gradually rebuilt her career in such spectacular fashion.

Paulette is candid about the experience of finding herself no longer deemed relevant. One of the book’s most poignant moments was when she, already aware her star was fading, was told by an industry figure, in all male company, that ‘no club will ever book a black female DJ with grey hair’. While Paulette was shellshocked, the other guys found it hilarious – a triple-whammy of racism, sexism and ageism.

Overall, it’s a fascinating insight into the club/music industry, with lots of advice to share, not only from Paulette, but via quotes from various industry contributors. Published by Manchester University Press, ‘Welcome To The Club’ is an essential addition to the existing DJ/club literature - Paulette’s unique perspective underpinned by the challenges she’s had to face, but always overcome.
