About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

The atomic space cakes appeared around the begining of the 1990,s , formed by Pete from the Deformed, with the co-operation of a drum machine named old trustworthy, who could only perform four different drum beats, but at various speeds. Pete met Chris at Reading Festival89 and a friendship was created that still exhists today.Through Chris the boy Brindle also known as Stig, was introduced and two were then three, Rick was working with Pete and it turned out he played bass and was up for joining the cake. Pippa floated in and out of the band with her flute adding that drift in the space ,time continueum. The warriors of the upside down chip pan were here....The first demo " hairspace" was a total four track experience, with lots of overdubs and bouncing tracks. this is not available anymore..second demo "mind control " was a little bit more professional but still home recorded, at rehab studio... such classic noise tunes as " The warriors of the upside down chip pan "LSD" and " Orbital ". But the songs such as " Meltdown " and " Thunder dreamers " always went down better in a live performance. Nev sort of drifted into the cake and his guitar playing added a real dimension to the tracks such as Volcano Heed, Fizziblood, Greed Machine and Monoculture. We have to give a mention to Bug for taking over on bass duties when Rick retired, he only did one gig but it was a blinder... check out myspace.com/lunarmusik to see what Pete, Chris and Stig are up to these days also myspace.com/petecress
