DIK MIK RIP

13682EEE-98E6-4DB9-A0AE-84D4A61F3A1FWe are sad to report the death of the legendary Dik Mik who was the keyboard warrior in the classic Hawkwind and whose swooshes of noise not only opened up new constellations of sound but made him inadvertently one of the key musicians of his time. A harbinger of future electronic based music it would be fair to argue that DikMik was a pioneer of not only industrial music like Throbbing Gristle but also much electronic music from Aphex Twin and beyond.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
