White Rabbit NOLA Episode: 07 Bouffant Bouffant
<p>In this episode, we sit down with Bouffant Bouffant—DJ, producer, artist, promoter, and the community builder behind Gimme A Reason, one of New Orleans' defining alternative queer dance parties.</p> <p>Bouffant traces his journey from growing up queer in a small Cajun community to discovering music as both an escape and a way to connect. He shares how New Orleans nightlife, European club culture, warehouse parties, and the city's DIY spirit shaped his approach to DJing and organizing.</p> <p>The conversation explores more than a decade of Gimme A Reason, its home at Poor Boys, the challenges of building an underground dance scene, and the connections formed when different corners of New Orleans meet on the same dance floor. Bouffant also reflects on the legacy of the city's rave culture, performing in Berlin and across Asia, and his plans to make more music—and perhaps turn Gimme A Reason into a record label.</p> <p>At its heart, this is a conversation about persistence, belonging, and the dance floor as a place where community becomes memory.</p> <hr /> <p class="p1">Follow NOLA EDM:</p> <p class="p1">Instagram: <span class= "Apple-converted-space"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/bouffantbouffant/">https://www.instagram.com/bouffantbouffant/</a></span></p> <p class="p1">Website: <span class= "Apple-converted-space"> <a href= "https://linktr.ee/bouffantbouffant">https://linktr.ee/bouffantbouffant</a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">Facebook: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gimme_areason/">https://www.instagram.com/gimme_areason/</a></span></p> <p class="p1"> </p> <hr /> <p class="p4"><strong>Stay Connected</strong></p> <p class="p1">🌐 Website <a href= "https://www.whiterabbitnola.com">www.whiterabbitnola.com</a></p> <p class="p1">📘 Facebook <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/WhiteRabbitNOLA/">https://www.facebook.com/WhiteRabbitNOLA/</a></p> <p class="p1">📸 Instagram <a href= "https://instagram.com/whiterabbitnola">https://instagram.com/whiterabbitnola</a></p>

White Rabbit NOLA Episode: 06 NOLA EDM
<p class="p1">This episode centers on <span class= "s1"><strong>Ayanna Lovelady</strong></span> — the creative force behind <span class="s1"><strong>NOLA EDM</strong></span>, a grassroots platform dedicated to documenting and uplifting New Orleans dance music culture. What began as a dormant community page evolved under Ayanna's direction into a growing media hub focused on artist interviews, event coverage, cultural preservation, and community connection across the Gulf South.</p> <p class="p1">This conversation moves through the deeper realities of building a scene in New Orleans — the fragmentation between collectives, the disappearance of venues and festivals, and the importance of preserving the history of local rave culture before it's lost. Ayanna reflects on navigating nightlife spaces as a Black woman, balancing burnout and ambition, and learning how to build something intentionally rather than chasing visibility for its own sake.</p> <p class="p1">We also dive into the changing landscape of dance music in the city, the role platforms like NOLA EDM can play in connecting isolated pockets of the community, and why archiving stories, spaces, and sounds matters just as much as promoting the next event. Along the way, Ayanna shares her perspective on collaboration, sustainability, representation, and the future she hopes to help shape for New Orleans nightlife.</p> <p class="p1">This episode also features a recording from Arthur Yves during a performance earlier this year in Vancouver for <span class="s1"><strong>Hospital Records</strong></span>.</p> <p class="p1">follow the white rabbit.</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <hr /> <p class="p1">Follow NOLA EDM:</p> <p class="p1">Instagram: <span class= "Apple-converted-space"> <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/nolaedm/">https://www.instagram.com/nolaedm/</a></span></p> <p class="p1">Website: <span class= "Apple-converted-space"> <a href= "https://neworleansedm.com/">https://neworleansedm.com/</a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/people/NOLA-EDM/61561040707684/">https://www.facebook.com/people/NOLA-EDM/61561040707684/</a></span></p> <hr /> <p class="p4"><strong>Stay Connected</strong></p> <p class="p1">🌐 Website www.whiterabbitnola.com</p> <p class="p1">📘 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WhiteRabbitNOLA/</p> <p class="p1">📸 Instagram https://instagram.com/whiterabbitnola</p>

White Rabbit NOLA Episode: 05 Paul O'Neill
<p class="p1">This episode centers on <strong><span class="s1">Paul O'Neill</span></strong> — a longtime selector whose journey into music started early, shaped by a household of musicians and a life spent chasing progression, both physically and creatively. From discovering underground parties as a teenager to teaching himself how to mix on vinyl without guidance, Paul's path has always been driven by curiosity and instinct.</p> <p class="p1">This conversation moves through the deeper side of DJ culture — the kind that isn't about quick hits or trends, but about long-form storytelling, control, and restraint. Paul breaks down his approach to building a room over hours, why he values patience over flash, and how rhythm and basslines guide everything he plays.</p> <p class="p1">We also get into his evolution as an artist — stepping away from DJing and returning, transitioning from vinyl to digital, and navigating a scene that's constantly shifting while staying true to his own sound. Along the way, he shares insights on avoiding formulaic music, protecting creative identity, and why, at the end of the day, all that really matters is what's playing in the moment.</p> <p class="p1">follow the white rabbit.</p> <hr /> <p class="p1"><strong>Follow Paul O'Neill:</strong></p> <p class="p1">Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/eddiewo/">https://www.instagram.com/eddiewo/</a></p> <p class="p1">SoundCloud: <a href= "https://soundcloud.com/pauloneill-1">https://soundcloud.com/pauloneill-1</a></p> <p class="p1">RA: <a href= "https://ra.co/dj/pauloneill">https://ra.co/dj/pauloneill</a></p> <hr /> <p class="p4"><strong>Stay Connected</strong></p> <p class="p1">🌐 Website www.whiterabbitnola.com</p> <p class="p1">📘 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WhiteRabbitNOLA/</p> <p class="p1">📸 Instagram https://instagram.com/whiterabbitnola</p>
