CONGRATULATIONS, YOUR IDENTITY IS DYING(AND THAT'S THE SEXIEST THING ABOUT YOU)Your carefully constructed self is having an existential striptease, and honey, it's time to stop pretending you're not turned on by the show.Meet James, found writhing in creative ecstasy at an underground party where the music industry's ghosts were having an orgy with tomorrow's sound.
