GO DOWN JUDAS

It's the return of the sexual vigilante Sex Judas and his trusted sidekick Ricky. This time in full-album mode. Norwegian producer Tore Gjedrem of Ost & Kjex fame, channels his love of comix, bohemia, and fascination with human vice, the unspoken, the red light districts, the alleys of the mind into his alter ego. Sex Judas is no bad character but certainly says what it's author cannot. I wanted to create a world where any musical idea is possible, wound together by the world and word of Judas, the ultimate sinner, reborn as a child of Venus. Inspiration ranges from Africa to '80s New York City, from Bohannon to Quasimoto, from Norwegian new wave to acid house. With contributions by friends in the Oslo scene as hometown legend DJ Pal Strangefruit Nyhus, composer Ole-Henrik Moe, jazz pianist Bugge Wesseltoft, Sidiki Camara from Mali playing that beautiful Ngoni, and multi-instrumentalist Ivar Snuten Winther, the album touches anything from blues, funk, disco, and post-punk to IDM, acid house, and electronic explorer music. - 01.
