DJ Sinistor spins primitive garage sounds dragged from the shadows of dusty basements, forgotten
dance halls and smoke-filled back rooms.
Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? ...
... The Shadow knows
Get ready for raw fuzz guitars, haunted Farfisa organs, pounding rhythms and wild 7" vinyl
selections moving through the darker corners of garage rock, freakbeat, rhythm & blues,
proto-punk
and exotic sounds from the 1960s and beyond.
Inspired by the savage energy of bands like The Sonics, The Seeds, The Music Machine, Link Wray,
The
Haunted, The Count Five, The Mourning Reign but also the more "modern" bands like The Cramps and
The Fuzztones, DJ Sinistor blends primitive stompers, fuzz-drenched
dancers and eerie movers into all-night rituals of rhythm and reverb.
From Back From The Grave, Pebbles and Nuggets classics to obscure killers hidden deep inside
forgotten compilations, the sound moves between snarling garage punk, hypnotic go-go beats,
jungle
rhythms, trashy rock'n'roll and shadowy horror atmospheres.
Expect songs like “Psychotic Reaction”, “99th Floor”, “No Friend of Mine”, “The Witch”, “Jack
The
Ripper”, “Human Fly” and countless obscure 45s built for dim lights, sweat, movement and
late-night
delirium.
