DJ Tendraw and The Gypsies Dog

‘Next up were DJ TENDRAW & THE GYPSIES DOG who easily walked away with the night’s prize for having the most flashing lights. And that’s not all. They are both clearly products of deep commitment to the underground rave scene from a very early age. Having finely honed their craft on London’s arts scene over the last four years, these two lads created a stunning amalgam of break-core, bleep, noise, grinning and hardcorepunk-style shouting; seemingly simultaneously unerringly tight and on the verge of collapse. With syncopated movements and almost turntablist-like rigour on circuit-bent kids toys and other unrecognisable devices spewing out their unnatural barrage of clatter, DJ Tendraw & the Gypsies Dog captivated the audience while looking all the while noticeably un-demonic in their smart-casual attire and sensible haircuts.’ Slightly off kilter Records. Club Silencio, The Volks, 12 Nov 2006.
Circuit bent analogue mayhem from dj Tendaw & The Gypsies Dog ... re-routed childrens toys, magnetic hotel keys, feedback, casio keyboards, and an array of home made "jump loops" , wallpaper textures & things that i’ve never seen before. Booked to perform between the bands with the intention of scaring the living f**k out of them. There last performance with us saw them out screaming current NME darlings The Horrors (which is no small feat) to a raptuous applause. The More or Less Club, Jamm, 2006.
‘Raving Lunatic - musical anarchy - DJ TENDRAW has spawned a scene and production style entirely of his own creation and watched it grow to become an underground phenomenon’ Iconscious. Lockdown, The Asylum, 14 April 2006.
