Other Cinema: Incredibly Strange Music

Here’s an aggressive critical engagement with both old and new pop-rhetorical tropes, led by legendary beatnik re-mixer 99 Hooker! His much-anticipated appearance here promises both wise and wise-guy versions of the comtempo sub-pop-music scene, as well as genius patter in situ. Avatar Pit, his real-time media delirium, is supported fore and aft by a raft of utterly anomalous musical singularities—spontaneous musique concrete sessions, damaged polka fragments, Troloman, Babalu, the Blob, the Residents, Eric Burden and the Animals, Chrissie Hynde and the Pretenders…rockin hard! AND Liberace, Spike Jones, the Mirror Man, Louis Prima & Keely Smith, singing ostriches, and so many Other outsiders, now centerstage in 99‘s upside-down musical universe!! $14
