Neu Electrikk

Neu Electrikk

Neu Electrikk has been played on NTS in shows including Gabi, featured first on 30 August 2016. Songs played include Lust Of Berlin and Cover Girl.

A five-piece band based in London, and influenced by Berlin-period Bowie,The Velvet Underground,Neu,Cluster, Can. Neu Electric comprised Dee Sebastian (v, real name Derek Morris), Steve Jadd (gtr, real name Steve Parry), Steve James Sherlock (sax/clar), Nick Hunt (b) and Barry Della/Deller (d). Having quickly attracted a reasonable following on the synth-dominated London circuit, the group self-financed the single Lust of Berlin, which was recorded early in the spring of 1979 and privately issued in May through the SGS plant on Synesthesia. Housed in a nice picture cover designed by Nick Wilkinson, the 7” offers LUST OF BERLIN and DISTRACTIONS two original compositions which deserve investigation from collectors of experimental New Wave. The group would issue a 1980 EP on the Synesthesia imprint (tracks: COVER GIRL / PRACTICALLY ISOLATE // CONVERSE OF TAPES / HAND) in a similar vein, using the slightly altered (and even more KrautRock flavoured) moniker Neu Electrikk, as well as contributing a different recording of LUST OF BERLIN to the Synth-Pop compilation THE SOME BIZZARE ALBUM. After the group's break-up, Sherlock played with The The and Marc & The Mambas, while Steve Parry formed Hwyl Nofio, a group who continued the sonic experiments first explored with Neu Electric.
