REGURGITATOR at Du Cane
It’s a retrospective of singles time!
Tests revealed sugar is sweet so we are extending this tour deep into 2026 now. A fistful of fizzers poppin’ packets over a hard driving 32 years plus. REGURGITATOR have spun the dial and played it each and every way. Sui generis jukebottin’ amid droids of repetition, jabbin' society in the eye with a groove full of politics.
55 tablatures of candy fix… punch a coin in the slot. Press play, hit repeat.
After last year's INVADER of the new comes a deep droid into those much loved plateaus of the nostalgia machine. Blister packin’ energy tracked in cycles of repetition - single after single after single adds up to some decent multitudes. Siftin' through their deca-drome of albums and slew of EPs. Robotic arms clawing in muscle memory. Wry rotations juking that stimuli… from Like it Like That’s and Kong Foo Sing’s... to Black Bugs, Polyester Girl’s through the Songs Formerly Known As, to the Pest’s and Cocaine Runaways… the shuffling bots - Quan, Ben, Pete, and latest keytaring effervescence Sarah - with their selector effects will cram as many hits as they canned into near on two hours of aural sugar that drips and drops.
“A perpetual possibility, in a world of speculation.” (T.S. Eliot)
Smack, bang up for it. Let’s arcade the fun!
Support from DEM MOB are the most remote hip hop group in the world—born deep in the red dirt of the APY Lands of South Australia—and the first to rap in Pitjantjatjara. More than a music act, DEM MOB are a movement: fusing hip hop with cultural identity, education reform, and political resistance. Their work challenges the systems that marginalise First Nations youth and reimagines education as a tool of empowerment, not assimilation. Their activism has directly influenced education policy, reshaped pathways for young people in remote Australia, and sparked a international conversation about what real equity looks like, with speaking at conferences on using hip hop as an education vehicle in 3 different continents.
Opener, MANKIND.
Saturday 14 February 7.45pm
