Sunset Mission // 15.04.09 // In Fear of Dub Part 2
Dr. Strangeloaf follows last week's Sunset Mission with a sequel to 'In Fear of Dub', an effort to dust out the darkest, dingiest corners of the dub diaspora. From Jamaican cannabis haze paranoia to skittery South London beats, bridged by the pessimistic post-punk of PiL, Bauhaus and Cabaret Voltaire, these two shows explore the more sinister turns of the tape reel. Expect claustrophobic walls of bass, pagan percussion and echoes from neglected tower block corridors.

aloha from hell - a tribute to lux interior
Sunset Mission // 09.02.09 // Aloha from Hell - A Lux Interior Tribute
An hour-long tribute celebrating the insane life and music of Lux Interior, frontman of infamous psychobilly punks The Cramps. B-movie camp, comic book gore, trashy burlesque and leather-clad rock and roll were all trademarks of The Cramps' sound and image. They spawned a million imitators but Lux remained one of the most uniquely derranged performers in punk. A sex-crazed satanic Elvis, Lux was also a renowned afficianado on outer limits rock and roll, amassing a huge of volume of surf, rockabilly, garage punk and far-out country records. Many of these records' riffs were 'borrowed' for Cramps songs, and a lot them were given a second life through the 'Born Bad' and 'Songs the Cramps Taught Us' compilations.
Sadly, Lux sank into the great black leather lagoon in the sky in early February.
RIP Lux.
