Rip Tide Reggae by Pedigree Cuts The combination of surf and music is surely one of the most iconic unions in film and television. Born in 50’s California, commercialised by The Beach Boys, then rediscovered by Quentin Tarantino for ‘Pulp Fiction’ - the original buzz saw rockabilly sound of surf is now indelibly ingrained into the fibre of modern culture. Skeewiff take things a further with ‘Surf Rock City’ (PED F088). Earlier this year he collaborated with Giles Palmer - writer for Dark Arts (Indie Thriller PED D006) and session guitarist (for clients such as Paul McCartney, Kylie Minogue, Tom Jones, Kelly Clarkson and Neil Diamond). They subsequently proceeded to create a dynamic new sound as the british summer blazed away. 'Surf Rock City’ crashes in on a 20 ft wave and maintains the intensity over 13 hi-octane tracks. Skeewiff works his trademark magic on Palmer’s original demos (available for fans of the retro 50’s sound after the main album) and via break beats and modern rock production, drags his twanging guitars into the here and now. There couldn’t be a better way to kick off proceedings than the perfectly named 'Off the Richter’ - tantamount to a mash up of Dick Dale, Led Zeppelin and Public Enemy - this has 'action sequence’ written all over it. Squelchy synth and a distinctly emo skank break up the insistent 60’s groove of ‘Brain Freeze Boogaloo’ before a cinematic choir hints at kitschy Old Spice ads on ‘Neptune Cocktail’. Classic melodic surf rock is re-energised complete with old school breaks on ‘Reef Break’ and a taut ska groove anticipates an unholy surf off on ‘Rip Tide Reggae’.

And so Doc began his search for the annoying pest, Reggae. He began by searching the immediate area outside of the doctor's room, where the pest was last located. "Heeere, pesty pesty pestyy..."He scanned the area, hoping to come across the bird brained bastard of a Bot.
