Dionysus Records announces the release of two hi-desert area artists on vinyl: Jesika von Rabbit ”Journey Mitchell” (Dionysus Records ID1233164) and Voodoo Organist “Organ Voodoo” (Dionysus Records ID1233160). Both artists will celebrate the release of their albums at the renown Pappy and Harriet’s in Pioneertown on Thursday, July 9, and at BAR in downtown Palm Springs on Saturday, July 11. Albums and other merchandise will be available at both shows.
Winner of Best Front Woman at the 2015 Coachella Valley Weekly (CV Weekly) Music Awards, Jesika von Rabbit along with Todd Rutherford formed cult favorite Gram Rabbit releasing several well-received albums, netting a long list of television and film licensees, and playing successful string of shows including a main stage appearance at Coachella. Taking a break from Gram Rabbit and armed with a stockpile of songs celebrating her love of electronics, von Rabbit has created and released her first solo album;, a playful, poppy, and psychedelic ‘adult theme park-pop’ experience titled ”Journey Mitchell”.
“… Part pop princess parody, part desert gypsy, Jesika takes us on a strange trip. Journey Mitchell, is laden with new wave influenced synths, keyboard melodics and infectious dance beats… Jesika von Rabbit wants to penetrate and disturb you. The undercurrent of Gothic industrial baselines, ghostly echoes and Jesika’s hallowing voice, leaves resin in your system that will bewitch you long after the music fades.”- Coachella Magazine
“Organ Voodoo” is the exotic, hypnotic, erotic, and rhapsodic ninth album by Scott Wexton a/k/a Voodoo Organist in which he leaves behind the rough-edged blues, rock, punk, goth and vaudevillian industrial sounds of previous releases and sails into the seductive Space Age sounds of exotica. The album is influenced by his love of exotica, lounge, and space-age pop music and was inspired by artists such as Sir Julian, Enoch Light, and Martin Denny (who he shares a birthday with).
In the mid ’90s Wexton left his Detroit home for the Music City—Nashville, TN—to work with Amphetamine Reptile noise legends Today Is the Day. He eventually moved to California and ended up in the Mojave Desert. He began performing as the Voodoo Organist in 2001, has self-released several albums, and played over 800 shows nationwide to the delight of fans and press.
The first run of von Rabbit’s LP is pressed on clear vinyl and includes a vinyl only bonus track. The first run of Voodoo Organist’s LP is pressed on red vinyl. Both contain a free digital download. Dionysus Records is distributed by ILD www.ildistro.com.
ALL THREE AVAILABLE FROM DIONYSUS MAIL ORDER – Links to each LP at the end of each description.
The Beachcomber Trio “Live at Kahiki 1965” limited blue vinyl repress
Previously unreleased until 2010, this long-awaited LP is a live recording of the house band at the legendary Kahiki restaurant. It’s like you are sitting at the bar enjoying a Mai Tai while listening to Marsh Padilla and company play a set of Latin Jazz/Hawaiian/Lounge inspired exotica! First pressing of 500 on black vinyl sold out shortly after release. This is a limited re-pressing of 485 copies on blue vinyl! Purchase here
The Avengers VI “Real Cool Hits” limited white vinyl repress
The Avengers VI were a clean-cut surf band from Anaheim, Calif., whose one and only album, Real Cool Hits, was issued in 1966 as a promo for Good Humor ice cream. The group’s name wasn’t even mentioned on the original cover although it was pictured on the kick drum. The group’s repertoire, which encompassed covers of popular surf instrumentals, mood music, movie themes and some first rate originals, attracted both teens and adults to their appearances in southern California. The long-out of print Bacchus Archives vinyl reissue has itself become collectible, bringing prices of $30 and up, which is why we’ve decided to repress this gem, in an edition of 500 on white vinyl! Purchase here
The Surf Teens “Surf Mania” limited clear vinyl repress
A reissue of the fantastic, but hopelessly rare 1963 album by Central Californian teens under the guidance of The Revels’ Norman Knowles. Includes five previously unreleased tracks and takes from master tapes and one from a rare 45! The Bacchus Archives LP has been out of print for a number of years. This is a clear vinyl repress in an edition of 500! Purchase here
In celebration of the 20th anniversary of The Satelliters, Dionysus Records has just released our eighth album with the group, More Of The Satelliters, available on LP with an old-style slick on board cover, colored vinyl and digital code, as well as CD and of course digital download from all the usual places; iTunes, Emusic, Amazon, etc. On the LP and CD the group has paired nine original tunes with three classic garage-monsters in an all analogue-recording! Those of you who purchase a digital download will have to live without the three cover tune, all the more reason to buy the vinyl.
Kraut garage revival gang is back again with a brand new slab and 12 organ driven/fuzzed-out + some Byrds-esque Garage folk-rock 60’s influenced tunes. This is their 11th Lp in 20 years of wyld garage action so you better wach out! – Surfadelic Website
Also out at the same time, the new Dukes of Hamburg LP, Liverpool Beat available on vinyl only! There are two Dukes of Hamburg, both are a mix up from each-other, one from Bielefeld, Germany and one from San Francisco, USA. The story so far: In the early 90s, Thilo Pieper went to San Francisco and formed the American Dukes with 
members of The Mummies, The Astronauts and The Phantom Surfers, and bassist Shannon Smith. The American Dukes toured up and down the West Coast and did two very successful European tours, then Thilo moved back to Germany and continued The Dukes in Bielfeld while the American Dukes were still doing shows. Both bands play ‘60s beat and garage with wild abandon and are inspired by ‘60s German Beat favorites as well as early Pretty Things and other groups from the pre-psychedelic 1960s rock ‘n’ roll scene. Liverpool Beat is the first album by the German Dukes of Hamburg on Dionysus Records, following the release of three American Dukes LPs on the label in the ‘90s.
Both The Satelliters and Dukes of Hamburg have been with Dionysus since the mid’90s and in fact Thilo Pieper is the person who connected The Satelliters with Dionysus. It’s a fab honor to release records with both groups in 1014!
