Naked Lunch @50
So a few months ago was a fascinating evening all about the legendary book Naked Lunch. This was a follow up to another great night all to do with William .S. Burroughs in which the The Cube Orchestra scored one of Burrough’s cut up films and I accompanied some poetry on drums.
Burroughs’ films are a firm fave of The Orchestra because they have lot of moods and interesting images for us to interpret through sound. Anyway there was also some rare stuff that Ben and gang had tracked down a well as some experts talking all about it. Sady I coldn’t stay for the whole thing but Ben captured some on video.
The night was a great example of what The Cube offers to Bristol that no where else can or does. Our thanks to everyone involved and to those who joined us.
Big Love daddio,

Beat this
Hey Daddios,
Some orchestral musings from the worlds favourite Richie FACT. Thursday saw a collaboration between The Heavy Heads and Orchestra Cube for an evening dedicated to the Beat Writers. There were several very rare films, one of which had been saved and rearranged by Genesis .P. Orridge which featured good old Uncle Bill Burroughs. This film featured a live soundtrack by The Cube Orchestra. I thought we did a really good job and we featured a good cross section of instruments; Pedal steel Guitar, keyboards (x3), Harmonica, tabla, saxophone, drums, therimin, electric, bass & acoustic guitars and violin. Good job chums.
After that I improvised some drums whilst Poet Bij did his thing
I have to admit I’ve always loved the Beats, especially Kerouac so to be able to do something like this was great, big thanks to The Heavy Heads for letting us have the opportunity.
Keep searching for ‘it’ baby,
Big Love, 
Richie Paradise
