Thee Ideal Gus

Thee Ideal Gus is a sprawling experimental collective originating from Hamilton, New Zealand, in the early 1990s. Born from the same prolific underground "gene pool" that produced acts like Pumice, Armpit, and G.Frenzy, the group is characterized by a fluid, loosely defined membership and a steadfast commitment to lo-fi, improvised, and chance-based recording.

Record Labels

Root Don Lonie For Cash

Prolific cassette, CDr and lathe-cut label run by Clayton Noone (aka CJA) and utilised by a fair few New Zealand (and some overseas) artists since the mid 1990s. Their first few years of releases had distinctive spray-painted covers. The original Don Lonie was billed as 'America’s No. 1 high-school assembly speaker', who recorded several albums for popular Christian record labels in the early 1960s. #nzmusic #undergroundmusic #rootdonlonieforcash

The Ho’ Dogs

Extremely wild Dunedin old-school rock'n'roll from a handful of underground experimental or lo-fi musicians. I managed to catch them once at the Provincial Lounge in Christchurch and was blown away by their stage antics; which included jumping on the Prov's bar, kicking over drinks. #nzmusic #thehodogs

The Strange Girls

Fantastic folky lo-fi group from Dunedin from the super-prolific Clayton Noone and ex-Ho' Dogs guitarist Kaaterama Morehu - who sadly passed away in 2020. "At their best, The Strange Girls made ruminative, repetitive and atmospheric bummer folk" #nzmusic #thestrangegirls #undergorundmusic
