BILLO AND THE JET GENERATION

About Me

www.myspaceeditor.itThis is BILLO, I'm a DJ and JET GENERATION is my latest rock'n'roll radio creature for the last Italian indipendent radio, mighty RADIO SHERWOOD. I finally got the chance to play all the music I liked and missed, all that really meant a musical landmark for me, from the 50s onwards (the list would be endless, just use your common sense and imagination)to the nowadays new sensation. CHECCO MERDEZ and LORD SIMON MORLOCK are my unreplaceable co pilots, two real cavemans, two zombies back from the grave, founded on the primitive and wild garage chords, entering the caves of low-fi. They are two unbelievable djs that have been shaking half Italy dancefloors for ten years, kickin your asses with ROCKABILLY AND PSYCHOSIS, GARAGE PUNK, FREAKBEAT, SURF, BUBBLEGUM, BATTLE OF THE BANDS, SIXTIES REBELLION and that right now are about to make you fly with their vynils which are still burning on the turntable. New two entries of the crew: our priceless puff, the one you can shake your ass, clap your hands and stomp your feet with, on glittery and dizzy wedges, on the melodies of english '70 glam: this is LESTER DIMITRI. Instead, RAMONE77E will suggests you a strong dose of powerpop, english and american punk â€™77 every third sunday of the month. Donâ€™t miss her!Jet Generation is all this and more: from prime movers and bands who left their mark in RNR to those who never made it, but we consider as absolute icons, with an eye to the local, underground and unknown bands that want people to hear their voice. Listen to us and send us your stuff, if you want. www.myspaceeditor.it www.myspaceeditor.it
