Rude 66

Rude 66 has been one of Holland’s premier electronic underground musicians for the last 25 years. Having played all over the world, from seedy squats to big festivals, most shows accompanied by his wife Shaunna on vocals. Live, Rude takes his studio tracks as starting points for improvised red hot workouts, loosely built around a unique mixture of sewer acid, vicious electro, dark wave and seedy Italo-disco.

Originally coming from the 1980’s Dutch noise/industrial squat scene and a longtime collaborator and high school friend of Bunker-chief Guy Tevares, Rude landed on Bunker right at the label’s beginning in 1993. Several albums of what would basically become the blueprint of the Hague’s acid sound followed. Acclaimed releases followed on other labels, from Crème Organization to Viewlexx and his current label Bordello A Parigi.

Rude still does his weekly Cosmic Overdrive radio show for I-F’s Intergalactic FM, the longest running show on the station. As a sought-after mastering engineer, he lends his sound and considerable experience to a new generation of influential vinyl labels.

Rude 66 will be gracing us with his first US live set in over a decade.
