Question: Which DJ best known for his role in the 1970s Disco music scene held residence at the club Studio 54 which is currently a Broadway theatre?
Context: For 94 years, 415–419 High Road Tottenham, London, N17 was a North London entertainment venue.  The building started life as a roller skating rink in 1910 but the following year was refitted as the Canadian Rink Cinema.  In 1925 it was converted into a dance hall known as the Tottenham Palais and became a popular jazz venue.  Later it was bought by Mecca Leisure Group and became the Tottenham Royal, managed by William McLeish.  North London’s premier nightspot for big band and swing music, with the Johnny Howard Band as resident for a period.  The 1950s saw the Royal embrace the rock and roll era and there is a well-known photograph in Picture Post of a group of Teddy Boys in the dance hall.  There was also a publicity shot taken outside the Royal when the Tottenham Hotspur League and Cup double team showed off their medals during a victory parade down the High Road in 1961.  Throughout the 1960s bands such as the Dave Clark Five (based there), the Troggs, The Who and The Animals played at the Royal and the Kray twins were among the more notorious visitors.  It had also become a modern style disco playing R and B music from America, Ska from Jamaica, as well as the latest pop hits.  By the 1970s Tottenham had one of Europe’s biggest black communities and the Royal was host to regular soul and reggae nights as the dance hall became a focal point for local black youths (along with Club Noreik at Ward’s Corner at the junction of Seven Sisters Road and Tottenham High Road) with many reggae stars such as Desmond Dekker and Gregory Isaacs making appearances.  In the mid 1970s Tottenham Royal, together with the nearby Charlie Chaplin's nightclub, plus other clubs such as Crackers in Wardour Street were all part of the up-and-coming UK disco and Southern Soul dance scene, with disco music interspersed with Glenn Miller swing music.  This was a real multi-cultural experience with white and black youths attending just for the music and to dance.  The 1980s saw a transformation into a string of new identities including the Mayfair Suite, the Temple, the United Nations Club, and the Zone, but its best days had passed and the garish and cavernous dance hall was finally demolished in 2004 to make way for much-needed local housing.

Luís Remo de Maria Bernardo Fernandes, more popularly known as Remo Fernandes (born 8 May 1953), is an Indian singer with a naturalized Portuguese citizenship who performs pop/rock/Indian fusion and is also a film playback singer.  His musical work is a fusion of many different cultures and styles he's been exposed to as a child in Goa and in his later travels around the world.  Such influences include Goan and Portuguese music, Sega music from Mauritius and Seychelles, African music, Latin music from Spain and South America, the music of erstwhile European communist states, those of the dancehalls from Jamaica and Soca from Trinidad and Tobago.  Writing and singing songs in English made his success more rare and distinctive in the context of the Bollywood-dominated, Hindi language-based, occasionally even disco music scene that was popular in the 1980s and 1990s.  His compositions in English, reflecting life and socio-political happenings in India with which every Indian could identify, became popular largely with the growing, English-educated, Indian middle class.  His Hindi pop/rock and film songs became instant hits with the Indian masses, earning him Gold, Platinum and Double Platinum Discs.  A popular stage performer in India, he has also taken part in many music festivals around the world.  He has performed with international names such as Jethro Tull, Led Zeppelin and Queen, to name a few.  Recently he signed up as a member of the AAP, a political party in India, for Goa constituency.
