BIO

Skull Juice are Alex & Ben, a dual headed DJ tag team mascarading behind the name of a rubbish Heavy Metal band. "We are totally metal though" they proclaim, simultaneously decapitating a family of bats, "But just because the power of the Gods of Metal beats like molten Iron through our veins, doesn't mean we can't like Disco more than a room full of leather clad Bears doing Gloria Gaynor impressions", and to reinforce the point, they gesture downwards and I notice for the first time they are both dressed in Identical John Travolta 'Saturday Night Fever' suits covered in tiny, tiny bells. So, I postulate, Skull Juice are a record-playing duo of extreme contrast then? "Not really, I mean you aren't actually likely to find us playing Heavy Metal, followed by a Disco record, we haven't quite broken away from the traditional DJ format of attempting to meld the greatest records you've (n)ever heard into a seamless DJ set that will send your brain into outer space to dance with the ghosts of Sun Ra, Ron Hardy & Armando through sheer exuberant Dance Joy." They both speak at the same time, voices sounding at once like Nina Simone & DJ Assault, Prince & that drunk bloke from Noze. And as they speak, I notice they are tapping out a perfect techno rhythm on the table at which we sit, as if reading my mind they instantly confess to a love of the genre "It's not a genre" they proclaim, standing and raising their voices to the sky (while continuing to beat out the rhythmic pattern on their chests), "It's a way of life, an all pervading and encompasing mindset upon which all other coherent thought must be based!" And with that they were away, concealed rocket boosters in their shoes activating and blasting them swiftly into the stratosphere, as they departing cries faded into the ether I caught their last few words; "Sorry mate, we're late for tea with Jeff Mills..." and with that they were gone.
