About Me |
|
| Hi! I'm Dalton E. Nugent, club owner, raconteur and communications head for Aidan 'Count' Skylarkin and Skylarkin' Soundsystem, and I edited this page using Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4. Clever me!
Skylarkin' Soundsystem: Booze n' Badchoons. Every Thursday night at The Zodiac , Oxford featuring VERY special guests! 2nd Friday of every month at The Prince , Brixton. For more info or to book Skylarkin' Soundsystem / Count Skylarkin email skylarkinsoundsystem ..at.. gmail ..dot.. com .. Beloved of drinkers and dancers everywhere, Skylarkin' Soundsystem was born via a 1997 mixtape in a South London cafe, and has been kicking out its patented brew of Jumpin' Jivin' Rockin' Swingin' Reggae, Ska, Soul, Dancehall and Rhythm & Blues Exotica in East Oxford every week for the past six years. We've put on the odd live act in that time, with roof-raising shows from Ska Cubano , Alton Ellis , The Skatalites , The Topcats and Max Romeo under our belts - not to mention numerous rip-roaring appearances from our house band, The Nine Ton Peanut Smugglers . DJing luminaries to have joined resident Count Skylarkin on the decks have included Daddy G, JStar , Wrongtom , Natty Bo, Bam Bam and Gaz "Rockin' Blues" Mayall ., DJ Derek and The Nextmen . Get Your Own! | View Slideshow When summer comes we hit the festivals, often in The Disco Shed - brainchild of Count Skylarkin and his good buddy Peepshow Paddy - rocking allotments at The Big Chill, The Secret Garden, Latitude Festival, Beachdown, Truck and many others. For my own part, I made my fortune performing dubious scientific experiments on political prisoners in the old Eastern Bloc, before investing in a thriving West of Ireland "nite" spot (The Dalton Inn is regularly voted Disco Of The Year in the Farmer's Journal) and now enjoy the trappings of seasonal homes all over the Caribbean, where I fostered my love of music. Some years ago I happened by chance upon Aidan Larkin, an up-and-coming ex-pat Irish disc jockey playing all of my favourite sounds whilst in Oxford visiting my old pal Tomas Jesus Rotulas, and the rest, as they say, is history. Divorced from my childhood sweetheart The Delectable Ethel since 2004, I now live in Oxford, England with my manservant The Disgraced Former Bishop of Galway. Dalton Nuggets |
