CITINITE SAYS: Stakker



**The Evil Acid Baron Show released in 1988 was the first acid house video, created by Stakker, with music by Farley ‘Jackmaster’ Funk, Tyree, Baby Ford, Royal House and S’Express. The first video that I saw was actually the more accomplished Eurotechno (video still above), which came out the following year. Eurotechno blew me away when I first saw it at a house night in Cornwall and I went to Woolworths to buy a copy on VHS, which thankfully I still have. The pulsing, ever-changing graphics go perfectly with the futuristic acid soundtrack and is just as fresh as it was then .

Stakker were video artists Mark McClean and Colin Scott. After using other people’s music for their first video, they decided they wanted their follow-up to feature music they had commissioned themselves so that the music could more closely match the visuals. **

**McClean and Scott used a Fairlight CVI graphics machine, which was the video “sister” to the Fairlight CMI digital sampling synthesizer made famous by the likes of Herbie Hancock and Art Of Noise.**

CITINITE SAYS: Earl "Snake Hips" Tucker



**Often called the "Human Boa Constrictor" and the "Gelatinous Dancer". Originated and made famous the dance called the "Snakehips" in the early 1920's. A dance that is a wriggling, hip type dance that is descriptive of its name.

Tucker came to New York in the mid 1920's via the May Kemp show from Baltimore. Snakehips got his first dance Show at Connie's Inn shortly after arriving into town and became a fixture for many years there. As time passed he would work for many
Night Clubs and theatres namely The Lafayette and Cotton Club.

His costume was designed to show off his movements; it consisted of a loose fitting silk shirt with puffy sleeves, form fitting black bell bottom pants with a sequined cumberbun with a sparkling buckle in the center from which hung a large tassle. Sometimes he would replace the cumberbun and tassle with a sash wrapped around his waist a few times, tied, and hung down at the side. His aura was coarse, deep suggestive and menacing all at the same time, like a cobra stalking its prey.**

SHUFFLESHAME

IT'S NO SECRET THAT I AM A GRUMPY CUNT. AND MUCH OF BEING A GRUMPY CUNT INVOLVES THE WORK OF HATING EVERYONE WHO (A) DID NOT GIVE BIRTH TO YOU OR (B) IS NOT WEARING YOUR UNDERPANTS RIGHT NOW.

BARRY AND JORDAN AKA SHUFFLESHAME FROM JOHANNESBURG MAKE IT VERY VERY HARD BEING A HATER CUNT...THEY MAKE IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. I LOVE THEM TO BITS AND WANT TO GIVE BIRTH TO THEIR CHILDREN AND HAVE OFFERED TO LEND THEM ALL MY UNDERWEAR.

THEY PLAYED MY LAST !DIRTY!DIRTY! PARTY...HERE IS THEIR SET

ShuffleShame AT !DIRTY!DIRTY! 29th May 2009

We had so much fun we decided to record the set we played out for all of ya'll that asked (shot.) and for those of ya'll that couldn't be there...**'

ELEPHANT SHOES



I just got married!! I am a married man!! Besides the thrills of getting my back patted raw and seeing reels of young hopefuls' hopes dashed, I am beeming in love.

The soundtrack to my buzz has mostly been (gasp!), dancehall and uk funky...I have been in Sweden for the last while and that has meant no township tech (and for some crazy reason unbeknownst to me, my wife refuses to pop the new DJ Cleo CDs out of their clingwrap packs).

I am not sad about this, in fact, this bubbly Carrabean Rave has only but added more pep to my step (which was already sufficiently pepped).

The favourite things have been:
