In-Tune: DigDug

"DigDug is a founding member of the Agartha Arts Collective, a group of musicians and artists from the San Francisco Bay Area working to create a hybrid mythology through sound and image to function as social/political criticism, science fiction, and hallucinatory aid. The Collective serves Agartha, a city located in the interior of the Earth, where according to Hindu legend, an inner sun illuminates another world inside ours. According to the Hermetic axiom, 'as above, so below', Agartha must also simultaneously exist subjectively, inside each of us. Accordingly, the collective mission of Agartha Arts is to excavate both realms and disseminate their findings through art and music. The Collective has shown their work in galleries in Japan, Los Angeles, and Oakland. Born to a human mother, but fathered by a reptilian from the hollow interior of our planet, DigDug has since ascended to the surface of our world, and planted a series of vibrations he's labeled 'Sinister Sound-Wave Seedlings'. Producing tracks for Nac1 (FSC, Bomb Records) and the Presence (Uncommon Records), DigDug's sound has been described as 'Herbie Hancock meets the Swamp Thing'." - DigDug
