What we say about Ask Dr Kim, by Gusset
This record left our Phil feeling happy.
Ask Dr Kim' by Gusset on Deathsucker is a right old load of hardcore breakcore gabba crazy noise featuring tracks by Shitmat, Parasite, Jason Forrest, the rather hilariously named Hard Off and many many more. Not one to play around your mum unless they like getting twatted at raves and hanging around with brightly coloured spazzes. Nonetheless it's a reasonably enjoyable romp through the harsher end of electronics. Dark and daft... great sleeve too.
What the label says about Ask Dr Kim, by Gusset:
Death$ucker Records releases the secret weapon of the Bristol underground music scene on an unsuspecting world. Gusset have been scaring friends and punters alike since 1996, unleashing aural assaults at breakcore, techno and hip-hop nights around the city. Not to mention anywhere else that will have them, from Brighton to Madrid. They don't fit comfortably into any nice little pigeon hole and have a sound all of their own, but strangely no imitators. After a promising but stalled start as a low-fi Amiga 1200 toting indie band that made Portishead sound like the theme from My Little Pony they regrouped and concentrated on a purely electronic offering. Their break came in 2002 when Death$ucker head honcho Parasite booked them to support Fanny and Venetian Snares on board the good ship Thekla (the floating venue brought to Bristol by Vivian Stanshall as the Old Verity Showboat). Since then they have jumped at the opportunity to support any act their name sounds funny next to. This remix compilation brings together remixes of their 2004 self-released Skidmark CDr. With remixes from the likes of Planet Mu's Shitmat and Teknoist, Cock Rock Disco's Jason Forrest (née Donna Summer), Manchester's king of mash-up Hoonboy, V/Vm's hardoff (aka M-Pi), Death$ucker's Parasite, and a collaboration with the Adverse Camber collective's DJ Spazmo. Further offerings include several of their own remanglings of the material, familiar to their live sets, and a track by Zod's Binray that claims to be a remix but neither he nor they can identify what was actually being remixed, it's all too long lost in time. Either that or he pulled an Aphex Twin on them. Typical comments include, "Why do such nice people made such horrible music?", "Stay away from my children", and "I had no idea you were so depressed/twisted/perverted*" Even the great John Peel said of them, "Is there any word in the English language more exciting that the word Gusset?" The crowning glory is the gusset flashing transsexual nurse neon artwork. If you thought "nu-rave" couldn't take any more irony, then you've yet to "Ask Dr Kim"!
