Recording info

LURID04: The Rattler Proxy present the prelude to their upcoming album, three new tracks produced by Thomas Bullock. "Follow" is a ten-minute acid storm brewing with distorted vocals and jangling art rock guitar - it was previewed by Tim Sweeney on his Beats In Space radio show and voted one of the best tracks of 2015. "Ex Cop" is an edgy three minute punk stomper with sharp guitars and an incessant driving beat. "Mother Goose", like "Follow", showcases more of the band's techno influences with thundering drums and twangy synths emanating from the deep.

LURID05: Giallo Disco dark overlord Antoni Maiovvi delivers a sprawling italo beast that will conquer all your inhibitions. On the flip, Lucas Savidis of the Rattler Proxy delivers a remix reminiscent of Badalamenti on acid.
