The Missing Track

The second ep of the Gringo Grinder album "Breakfast included" is concentrating all attention on the vocaltracks of the record. These vocal tracks are from such well sounding names as Ada and Amy Fletcher. As a bonus you get one of the hits of the album, the solid rocking "Dirty Deeds", and"Stiletto Rock", the missing track of the cd, which the artist lost somehow while mastering the record. Shit happens. Even to the best of us. Gringo is flying around in eruope these days to promote the record. Next up in novembre: His Debütalbum as Sid le Rock on Ladomat / Mute. Oh! Canada. ...Once again. How intense the relationship between onitor and the so called "51 state of america" (the americans just include them as another state so that their fear of the Canadians intellect can be closely monitored by big brother) is, inspired by the beautiful electronic music movement of Canada. it's made obvious: Tomas Jirku,Robin Judge, Mike Shannon, Jeff Milligan, Crackhaus (Deadbeat & Stephen Beaupre), all of them are now in our Haus. And now Shelbono "Barracuda" del Monte. Better known as Minimal-Hedonist Pan/tone...or as it says on his passport: Sidney Sheldon LeRock. From now on in the onitor cosmos he is called Gringo Grinder (this Pseudonym appeared first as a track titel on a Revolver EP "Quien es su Papa, Mama fina?"). But that was from another time. He finally rid himself of all the barriers of his earlier stock broker lifestyle. So at 30, he did decide to quit his safe existence, take the risk of the unsure. Yes...we all should fight against the safe existence. Shelbono has dug deep within and Gringo Grinder is who he found to reflect is true nature. Nothing is more dangerous than the early still stance as a result of Angst).His mission is to rock without any borders. Most importantly with a whiskey in his hand and in a smoke filled club. Favourite place: on stage. Everybody gets sweet to his Electro-influenced Techno- sex monsters that he has unleashed upon us and so we dance away the night in pleasure. if there is no tomorrow, only today will know better. In the summer of 2003 Shelbono settled in Germany to make this mission happen....with his revolution of Rockno influences brought on by Cologne to be concrete. Whereelse. Cologne, the Mecca for every Canadian and American who can spell the words Electronic Music and Kraftwerk. First signs of the new Kanadisch-Deutschen-Freundschaft where released on Sub-static und Background. He also produced a bastard of an album for onitor (only the start of our relationship) -and some more tracks for a 12-Inch, which will also feature remixes by his buddys Ada und Jake Fairley. We didn't feel this sweet since our last breakfest in bed. This is the soundtrack for a hot night in the red light district of Tokyo. This is the background sound to your next orgy gathering. Sheldon is always available for interviews.
