After already releasing two EPs this year, dance-punk maven Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo of The Bloody Beetroots unveils new music and tour dates under his solo SBCR moniker.
The Italian producer recently premiered 5 video vignettes soundtracked by his SBCR & Adversaries Vol 2 EP. The 6th video debuted Monday through label mate/ founder Steve Aoki’s facebook page. SBCR’s mischievous verve is on full display as he plays street-style drums on Hollywood Boulevard to finance the construction of his new mask, teaches tennis to a tennis pro and relaxes in the pool under a quintessential California sun. Check out all the videos here:
The Dim Mak mainstay will return to Los Angeles next month for a set at Hollywood hotspot Sound Nightclub during a slew of North American tour dates that include stops in New York, San Francisco, Washington D.C. and Vancouver. Rifo said “Between the 2 EPs and the forthcoming Refused remix, I’ve had a great opportunity to stretch myself this year… knowing that I couldn’t wait long to perform it all for you as SBCR. And nothing gives me the reward of standing on stage, creating music and feeling you feel it.” The eight-date run will be the first opportunity to see SBCR performing music from his six-track SBCR & Adversaries, Vol. II EP stateside.
While fans wait for the final installation of the three-part SBCR EP series due out later this year on Dim Mak, they can satisfy their SBCR cravings when his remix of recently-reunited hardcore punk band The Refused’s hyperkinetic headbanger “Elektra” releases on October 9 via Epitaph.
