Lord Numb is one of those wonderful, enigmatic artists who gave my show some sort of shape in those early years. It wasn't just his own, wonky, mesmerising stuff that did that, but the range of artists with whom he collaborated, such as Spidersleg and Julien Auroux. They established a pattern early on of sending me whatever they did and, invariably, I loved it and played it.
This track can now be found on the Numb bandcamp site as part of an EP called Vintage Numb. The four tracks on there do a pretty good job of capturing the essence of an artist whose work pretty much defies description. The Chicken Mangle Disco is but one of several weird houses that inhabit his musical universe.
