Spare Time Machine

(Catskills; US: Available as import; UK: 18 Jun 2007)

Although sales never came up to par compared to 2003’s Beatitude, the 2007 full-length from Finnish crazies Pepe Deluxé was by far their greatest achievement to date. Critics gave it an Emma (the Fin Grammy), but a lack of US distribution meant few outside of Europe knew it existed, which is a shame because the beating heart of the record was largely influenced by the American psychedelic movement of the late ‘60s. These three videos will tell you their story.


Pepe Deluxé - “Mischief Of Cloud 6”


Pepe Deluxé - “Go For Blue”


Pepe Deluxé - “Pussycat Rock”
