Sticky Fingers - Clouds and Cream Tour with Special Guests Babylon Burning + Lyall Malloney
Friday, 11th January 2013
Governor Hindmarsh Hotel, 59 Port Road, Hindmarsh

Clouds & Cream - psychotic pop or sinister surf dub? That is the ultimate question. With their previous single (and title track off the forthcoming album), Caress Your Soul, still charging and charting all around the world, Sticky Fingers are keen get back on the tour-train again and, to celebrate the release of their new single, they are hitting The Gov's stage this January.

Clouds & Cream, is the second single to drop from Sticky Fingers' forthcoming debut album, Caress Your Soul - out March 2013 through MGM - and is their second 'break up' song, drawn from sticky break up experiences.  Well, one of the Sticky break ups,  and we say one of, because all four of the band members experienced break ups in the past year. Ouch! 

Not ones to shy away from the spotlight, Sticky Fingers are quite comfortable sharing their personal stories with their fans, as they know better than most, these types of experiences are relatable for most people.It's for this reason that Sticky are calling them psychotic, surf, dub, love songs.

Personal relationships aside, touring actually works well for Sticky Fingers, it gives an otherwise rowdy bunch of misfits structure, so, touring? Yes, they're doing it! The Clouds and Cream Tour will make a short jet down the East Coast in January but it's their appearance here at The Gov, Jan 11 that has us excited..

After a stack of shows sold out on their last tour - Made For It - which coincided with the release of single Caress Your Soul, you'll want to grab your tickets quickly!  

They sold out in Melbourne at the Workers, in WA at the Indi, also in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. 650 people jumped up and down in the Standard, wreaking a trampoline-like havoc on a wooden floor that at times, threatened to buckle.  Here it's described by the Drummedia review:
 "Sticky Fingers took the stage and the room nearly broke. Their brand of reggae/rock turned the crowd from respectable 18- to 25-year-olds to a dangerous mass of young heartbreak that very nearly collapsed the floor as the PA shook and shuttered, turning the mosh into a hardwood trampoline." 

So come on down to The Gov, January 11 and get rowdy with the boys from Sticky Fingers!

chrispop will have you popping and locking
Allow  me to introduce Chrispop... Now allow him to do the rest. ;)

My name is chrispop, but friends call me christian or poppy. Born and raised in a tiny village in the woods, but for the last 9 years I've been mainly living in paderborn, a mid-sized city in the center of germany

I've been djing for close to 15 years now. started out on 90s hiphop & bigbeat, took a long detour playing mostly 60s & 70s funk/soul/rocksteady/ska/beat/psych etc, and only got back into "modern" music over the last 3-4 years, when labels like bombstrike and goodgroove started releasing what's now known as "ghettofunk" or "nu-funk", combining all of my musical interests (breakbeats, classic funk samples, hiphop vocals, heavy bass etc) into one "genre", allowing me to play music from all my "roots" on one party...
I've always been into music (played the organ, guitar, bass...as a kid), and did mashups/bootlegs/remixes mostly for myself to relax, but after I switched to djing digital 2 years ago I could finally play "my" stuff, so I focused more on tracks that I'd like to play, but that didn't exist yet...

Where do you draw your inspirations from?
Numerous people, but if I have to name a few it would be folks like fatboy slim, andy smith, a.skillz, krafty kuts, bobby c. sound tv, daigo, nick thayer, spinforth, stickybuds, slynk, the whole ghettofunk.co.uk posse...
What I really love about this "scene" is how warm, friendly, open and accessible it is...most of the music is put out for free on platforms like soundcloud & bandcamp, and there's a great worldwide community supporting and working with each other. It's amazing to be a - however little - part of something that's not driven by monetary interests, but by the love of music and sharing it with others.
musically I'm influenced by pretty much anything but standard 4/4 dance music and rock. as long as it sounds organic, funky and bassheavy, I'll probably like some of it, be it breaks, hiphop, reggae, glitch, dubstep, funk, "ethnic" balkan & world music, soul, jazz...

I'm constantly digging around for new music & artists, and all the time palying around with remixes/bootlegs of tracks I'd like to fit into my sets or that in my mind sound great combined. I mostly do my stuff to play out myself, but it's awesome to see people elsewhere digging what I do...


I'm working on a ep with tracks fusing ghettofunk with "classic" german hiphop vocals at the moment, also there's a few more tracks in the pipeline. I try to come up with more original material, but coming up with my own melodies and sounds is not easy in a genre defined by sampling classic stuff...
for the "scene" in general I honestly hope it doesn't blow up too soon and become the next big thing for 5 months. Just look at how moombahton was the thing for a few weeks an is apparently already dead again...ghettofunk/nufunk/funky breaks/(what ever you want to call it) has been growing really organically over the last few years and it's getting bigger daily. It's a music that's "mainstream-accessible" without selling out or dumbing down, and definitely the most fun i ever had in a club:)

If you would like to contact chrispop for any reason. Perhaps to commission a song or two (he is very talented). He can be reached at the links below. Don't forget to check out his video collaborations as well they are pretty good too.
