We got the streets suckers – Lucid Dream come out to play

I want The Lucid Dream! I want them alive, if possible. If not, wasted! But I want them. Send the word!

You’re standing right now with delegates from 100 psych bands. And there’s over thousands more. That’s 20,000 hardcore heads. Forty-thousand, counting affiliates, and twenty-thousand more, not organized, some stoned, but generally ready to fight: 60,000 heads and some hipsters! Now, there ain’t but 20,000 police in the whole town. Can you dig it?

Now, here’s the sum total: One gang could run this city! One gang. Nothing would move without us allowing it to happen. We could tax the crime syndicates, the police, because WE got the streets, suckers! Can you dig it? Can you dig it???

The number one gang of the psych scene are the #psychtraitors The Lucid Dream aka the rampant Road warriors of motorik, the Digby’s dick of dub, the Titans of techno and the Tongs of Trance.

All right now, for all you boppers out there in the big city, all you street people with an ear for the action, I’ve been asked to relay a request from the Grammercy Riffs. It’s a special for the Lucid Dream, that real live bunch from Carlisle, and I do mean the Lucid Dream. Here’s a hit with them in mind.

‘Coalescence’ cruises like a hundred NY subway trains, jumping the turnstiles, dressed and ready for action. It sounds like civilisation spaffing it’s pants.

The Lucid Dream, sick of running from these wimps, blast off with ‘CHI-03’ a thrilling reduction of dance music to it’s vital core, and then amplifies minimalism to the max. Say goodbye to those lousy skinhead fucks.

‘Leave Me In The Dark’ is arguably the peak of The Deep End. Everything The Lucid Dream do is one continuous story and roots of past albums come together, the groovy swirling dub, the furious automatic language, the delirious cloud 9 dance. Iconic and for the ages. Dub fucks techno, and techno likes it.

Lucid Dream come out to plaaaa-ay.

‘High and Wild’. Perfect panorama of a long journey that’s half ocean, half fairground. A moment of ripose after the battles, and showing scars of what has passed. A reflection of what was sought and what has been won. A view out into the sea and at home. One eye on the past and one eye on the future. Day by day…

You Lucid Dream are good, real good

The best
