Sonic Reducer - Revenge Of The Mongoloids XVII ...
--------------------------------------
Yus, indeedy, our beloved brethren ...
That sweetboy Teenslain and yer ever-lovin' BigKegShandy have found a new fortnightly, Friday nite, late-openin' home for Sonic Reducer, up the road in RayDaviesLand, London N6, cheek-by-jowl with Highgate tube.
Following an aborted push into the West End before Xmess, which saw The Beatings rock a packed house like four cheap alarm clocks (or even THE Alarm Clocks!) and yers trulies get a bollocking for daring to mix rekkids made before 1977 with those made afterwards (like, duh!), we've decided to return to our spiritual home ... Gerry O'Boyle's muchly licensed establishment, The Boogaloo, boasts possibly thee finest jukebox in the whole darn wurld (James Carr, The Stooges AND Wreckless Eric! Awwww! Yeah!), and many more sterling attributes ...
Since then, we've also had wickedly-fuelled fun spinning platters that may-or-not matter to packed houses at Shepherd's Bush Empire, The Forum and The Borderline for the seriously good-gawd (!) like Arthur Lee, who is one heavy, heavy dude (nice line in H Bar C shirts, also). Yeah, onna coupla occasions, we've even messed up the already melty minds of Sky Saxon & his actually really quite brill new versh of The Seeds, which was a blast and an 'alf! Or should that be arf, arf, arf?
All this and visits from the STILL seriously undervalued You Am I, a second New Year in Memphis grokking The Reigning Sound & The Cool Jerks, catchin' them Stooges boyz in Berlin, The New York Dolls swingin' by the Thames, and nabbing two copies of The Ideals' The Gorilla on 7"? Add in the just-released Prisoners best of(www.acerecords.co.uk/gotrt/may04/cdwikm241.html) and their blammo Modstock gig, the upcoming Jack & Greg Oblivian double-biscuit comp (Twins Of Evil), and some super special double secret projects, then you've got a recipe for ROCK'N'RRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL! Ahem ...
BTW, The Sonic Reducer Tag Team is also unbelievably proud to announce that we're DJing at the MC5-DKT gig at the Londinium Astoria on August 25th ... Be there, or go boil yer 'eads ... Your belief in Messrs Davis, Kramer & Thompson will be MORE than justified, just wait!
Anyhoo, at The Boogaloo, youse can expect the same mess o'righteous sounds from the darin' '20s to these decidedly non-naughty noughties, including plenny o'sweaty funk, choice '60s garage, ravin' R&B, salacious soul, hemp-saturated jive, moon-hoppin' JA sounds, high energy rock'n'drool, and all'a the other shit that's fit to spin ... We kick off the first 8-til'-1 sesh on July 9th, then go fortnightly after, with special guest DJs, too ...
Warn your friends ...
Selah!
