DJ Melee: The better the party, the better the vibe, right? *** Eli: I think most of us here probably use some aspects of the new technology in everything we’re doing now. But it’s really to try to push new things and open up new doors. *** DJ Knife:...

REPEAT AFTER us: a DJ is not a jukebox. If there’s anything that echoes in our head on a recent Friday afternoon, as we sip beers around a table in the back room of the Boston Billiard Club, it’s those six words. At the table with us: eight of the city...

(From left) Conan Skyrme, Steve Lord, James Tracey, Nicole Boudreau, and Andy Casey TO MAKE IT in the music business, the essentials are — like it or not — simple: the sound, the skills, and the look. Sure, there are exceptions, but the band that rolls...

THE IPHONE. Super-fancy underpants. The triple-chocolate-orgasm-fudge-explosion ice cream that’s forever leering at us from inside its frost-bitten glass case. What do they have in common? All three rank on our list of must-have splurges. But what about...

NO ONE SAID the journalism business was easy. When everyone else is all bundled up to fight Mother Nature’s harsh winter chill, we’re peeling away the layers of fleece, down, and flannel to expose some of the city’s most well-sculpted physiques. And it...

IT'S NOT LIKE I'm obese or anything. It's just - well, let's just say I was never the athletic type. My parents pushed me into a childhood's worth of ballet classes when it became painfully obvious that I preferred practicing my twirls...

I'VE NEVER been a big New Year's resolution kind of guy. I can't remember the last time I resolved to stop doing anything on the first day of the year. (Except in 2002 when, face down in a hotel toilet, I declared I would never, ever drink...

ALL THE THINGS we love about the holidays - the expensive bottles of wine, the multi-course meals, the fancy soirées that end with breakfast - are also the things that leave us bleary-eyed, pudgy, and hating ourselves come the season's proverbial...

NEW YEAR’S EVE: we can never decide whether to love it or hate it. Somehow we’re always making grand plans that never materialize — and when things have panned out, too often we’ve spent the evening nine cocktails deep and making out with whomever happens...

Greg Pic, DJ/producer Last year I got: an incredible number of Starbucks gift cards! I’m seriously addicted to the iced mochas — can’t start my day without one. This year I want: I hate to be a “band geek,” but since I spend more time in my studio than...

Worst gift: Rocking the reindeer sweater won’t win you any style points. And if Rudolph’s nose blinks, all the worse. BETTER ALTERNATIVE: SNUGGLE UP IN THE PRINGLE CABLE-KNIT SWEATER ($175) FROM INTERMIX (186 NEWBURY STREET, BOSTON, 617.236.5172). IT...

WHENEVER WE’RE desperately seeking inspired gifts for those random people on our holiday shopping lists, we inevitably settle on the themed stocking — with unanimously positive results. Want to do the same? We’ve put together six stockings for the personality...

NEW ENGLAND’S culinary tradition may be America’s oldest, but it’s not often considered its most delicious. After all, our local cuisine originally sprang from the British Isles, land of the boiled potato and overdone roast, and the Pilgrims, whose religious...

YOU ENTRUST your dinner to them, so doesn’t it make sense to ask your favorite local chefs which up-and-coming cooks they think are talented? We checked in with restaurant vets Jody Adams, Robert Fathman, Marc Orfaly, Bill Poirier, and Jeremy Sewall about...
