Crocodile or Real?

Released

If you were one of the four people who thought African Head Charge was too mellow, Dip Friso has rocketed into your town to get the blood flowing. Glaswegian secular dub, the sound of a man locked into a fruit machine trying to serenade his keepers before the bugs eat him. Just ask the artist himself what it sounds like, and behold: “Over-ripe bananas and quaaludes, looking across the concrete at screeching burn outs resonating into echo-streaked good morning sunshine.”
