Luca Lomdardo is Rude Hi-Fi. Luca aka Rude is a fundamental part of the Bologna music scene. Born in 1964 into a family of Sicilian emigrants, Rude grew up between Germany & England. Today he lives in Italy. He has been part of the music scene there since 1984. Rude Hi-Fi started in 1995 after the dissolution of Ghetto 84, the punk rock group also from Bologna of which he was a member. In 1996 Rude began his career as a DJ, playing in different clubs in Bologna, promoting Dancehall / drum 'n' bass mixed with reggae, ragga, & breakbeat.
When I was doing Sound Systember, good Frenz Afro turned me on to Rude Hi-Fi through the song "Soulpusha". I found my way to this release, which I'm sharing here.
We've got the Mexican connection, ese.
Thanks, Afro.

Thanks brother. Glad you are always out there. When you drop a line, then I know you are doing well & it warms my heart.
DeleteGreat album I really recommend it for everyone.
ReplyDeleteMuchas gracias NØ por la música mexicana, pasando por Italia. Me gusta mucho. Me recuerda a la conexión hispana del punk de Los Ángeles.
ReplyDeleteDefinitivamente un híbrido extraño, pero muy disfrutable. Gracias, amigo.
