Nicholas “Nick” Currie (born 11 February 1960), more popularly known under the artist name Momus (after the Greek god of mockery), is a Scottish songwriter, author, blogger and former journalist for Wired.
For over thirty years he has been releasing, to marginal commercial and critical success, albums on labels in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Japan. In his lyrics and his other writing he makes seemingly random use of decontextualized pieces of continental (mostly French) philosophy, and has built up a personal world he says is “dominated by values like diversity, orientalism, and a respect for otherness.”
Don’t Stop the Night is the fourth studio album by Scottish musician Momus. It was released in 1989 through Creation Records internationally, and in Germany on Rough Trade. The album featured Momus’ highest-charting single to date, “The Hairstyle of the Devil”, which reached No. 94 on the UK Singles Chart for the week of 30 April 1989.
