DJ Jonzo cranks round the fortunes of once great muzik and art empire, Santaphobia; meshing up a seismic helping of beat potatoes and melody gravy - Charles Ives on a £2.50-for-two-bar-meal hip hop tip, a random heap of greens from Zappa's rejecto-file, looped and twisted with a snatched dialogue seasoning. Incoherent onion marmalade follows crisp side salad follows two or three lollipops licked once and all stuck together. Juicy raisins sparsely populate gooey, lardy spoge to prick your flavour cells into frenzy. A bit like your Mum unexpectedly putting up Medeski Martin & Wood sandwiches on a Thursday. The courses are all mixed up. They shape aeon drawn-out sensory deluges leaving you begging for control, but the relentless gravel laced soup is drawn through wide bore tube directly into your psyche, by-passing sense entirely. It becomes a fish bone stuck in your past requiring a species of aural colonic irrigation or Heimlich manoeuvre or some new procedure not yet defined by medical science to mitigate its effects. The menu reads like a Bill Burroughs lunch card invite - 'Dance of the Milk Spider', ' Salt & Coffee', 'Good Egg, Bad Egg'. Some dishes don't even have anything to do with food - 'Zombies of the Stratosphere', 'The Twonky', 'Up The Brain Stem', 'It's Standing on Legs!' Jonzo understands that the first bite is with the eye and visual fried noodles with chilli beef is crammed into every corner of the tape insert. It's a feast for the hungry, especially for thosse with with a Jap-sci-fi-girl-with-gun-robot-bent. No nouvelle cuisine nonsense here. He is a Delia tuneSmith, taking forever to reach his destination only to discover that there is nothing in the oven when the timer sounds, the washing up needs doing and there is a huge spill on the floor. But the wild ride in between used every pan in the kitchen. Either that or it's like Carl Stalling wrote rudimentary house music for Derek Jarman's 'Blue' - I can't decide. Eight two one! |
