Second 12" Out Now On LAZY!
The second Sugardog 12" has just been released on LAZY (distributed
by LAZY and Nu
Urban Music). This four track EP was mastered recently at Kinetic
Mastering by Paul Solomon (Leftfield/Tipper/etc.) and is now ready for
your 1210's. The track-listing is:
- A1 - Me And You
(click to listen)
- Featuring John Lee Hooker, an old friend. Reminds you of
ol' skool breakbeat house - but not a 4/4 kick in sight! Shit Kickers
edit by Carim Clasmann. Previously unobtainable due to UK foot
and mouth restrictions, this livestock has now been certified "safe"
and is ready to spread it's filth all over dancefloors everywhere!
Watch your step! (Note: This record was made before
John Lee's recent death. We would like to offer our deepest respect
to the man and his music and thank him for the many years of listening
pleasure and inspiration he gave us.)
-
- A2 - Untrue (Here Boy mix)
(click to listen)
- Here Boy mix in a "f*ck skool" stylee. Is this really
post-millennial breakbeat juxtaposited between 2-Step and Electro?
Who cares! Despite counselling, this will beat up your teacher when
the bassline hits you!
-
- AA1 - Medicine
- "You are the pill for my fever and chill!" By strict
definition, this is Drum n Bass, but there's nothing like this!
This is the classic Sugardog 'good dog/bad dog' situation taking
you on a journey from beauty to disease, through a parallel dimension.
It occupies unfamiliar territory, but welcomes the listener like an
old friend. Just mind those teeth!
-
- AA - Untrue
- This is the original Sugardog mix. This just ejaculates
from the speaker and washes you with bass. Gila
sings "Is this untrue?" and you want to shake her, yelling
"True! True!" If it really exists, this is 'Stadium Jungle'
- destined for massive sound systems in massive spaces. Massive.
Release Date : July 23 2001
Cat. No: LAZY2
Promo runs have been very encouraging with good DJ support: Andy Weatherall

Sugardog LIVE!
Sugardog recently played a low-key live PA at Sympático,
a wicked party at a riverside location in Woolwich, London. We played
a short, 3 song PA, performing a live version of Untrue (Here
Boy remix), and debuting two new tunes: Lava Flow, a deep house
jam and Catapult, a drum n bass stone, fired with elastic.
The only live act, we played with DJs including Robbie Charles,
our own Sugar T (blinding set, Tim!), and E. Wolfe ("brutal
with the millimetre"). Coming on just before 1am, we transformed
a 'just about to dance' crowd into a 'just you try and get me off the
dancefloor' crowd and for the rest of the night we were greeted on the
dancefloor by comments of: "wicked, wicked", so we reckon it
went down well... <grin>
After this performance (our first with new material) there has been talk
of arranging more dates. If you would like to be informed of any live
gigs (or Sugar T sets) please e-mail Sugardog
and we'll let you know.
Nuff Said...
So that's enough news from Sugardog. I didn't mention the coming
reviews and features on the band
or the planned live shows. Watch this space for details! You can join
our extensive mailing-list and get news about the band directly e-mailed
