La Dolce Vita with Mr. Cigarette Butt (GarageRock, Italian Beat, Protopunk)
The Eschschloraque invites you to the Official Afterparty of the film premiere THE FUZZTONES VS THE WORLD! The film describes the highs and lows of the extraordinary band The Fuzztones, whose career spans 40 years of garage rock.
Formed in New York City in the early 1980s, they spawned an exciting new scene with their novel brand of psychedelic punk. Their unstoppable and charismatic bandleader Rudi Protrudi continues to passionately pursue their unique vision around the world today.
Directed by Danny Garcia (The Rise and Fall of The Clash, Looking for Johnny, Sad Vacation, STIV, Rolling Stone: The Life and Death of Brian Jones, Nightclubbing, etc.).
Also dedicated to the scene andfollowing the vision "Dance your heart out to the darkest part of your soul!", Mr. Cigarette Buttplays the afterparty with a mix of garage rock, Italian beat and protopunk:
Dark punk with roots as deep as the blues - Mr. Cigarette Butt is characterized by an insatiable passion for music. Years of researching old cassettes, then old vinyl, have already shaped his fascination for idiosyncratic sounds - ravaged and pure at the same time. Music, especially from the underground scene, from the wildest rock'n'roll to the most synthetic sounds of the 80s, becomes like a drug. With every beat, she transports his devotion to equally dark and moving sounds to the dance floor, "all well and truly stuffed with unhealthy lives". After many wrong turns in Italy, he ended up in Berlin, where he is a DJ, musician, promoter and much more.
