Helix Resonator is next generation dub-infused working class music buried deep enough underground that it should survive the apocalypse so those who remain standing after it's all said and done will no longer want to live on their knees once they dig it up. Right up until said apocalypse you can catch Lt. Lunatico and his travelling Helix Hub Dub Station live for a subversive set of real-time dub mixdowns and multi-instrumental meltdowns. From Washington State to Kyoto, Japan to Morelia, Mexico to Fukuoka, Japan to Vancouver, B.C., to San Francisco CA and beyond, Helix Resonator is on the move. Lt. Lunatico`s past and present collaborators and projects since 1999 include Bersatu(WA&Kyoto) with Aoki Takamasa, Takagi Masakatsu, Panchi, Ras Layo, Dr. Stone, Scoop 7(Portable Morla), Jevfro aka Captain Morton, Blandow C. and other Log Hog members(WA); Capitan Colibri and Dulcinea/Meketrefes(Morelia, MEX); Major Manchek(MadLabDub); Escalade(JAPAN) with Dr. Escalator; Graffic Beat with Olive Oil(Oil Works-Fukuoka); Cream of the Stoners(Fukuoka); Che Guerrilla(Fukuoka); Fukujyoushi(Tokyo); Burn with Water(WA); and live collaborations with artists such as Ao Inoue of Dry and Heavy(Japan`s quintessential dub group), Dubblestandart from Austria, Red Eye Sound Crew(Fukuoka) and Hakata Danshaku(Fukuoka). **Also keep an eye out for the long-awaited heavy duty side-project called `Venganza de Cochino`(Vengeance of the Scum)--future dub sludge for when you`re having a bad day***
