BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1987
“Cocaine Sex” was the second single released by the electronic music group. Formed in London in 1986, Renegade Soundwave. The single was released on Mute Records subsidiary Rhythm King in 1987.
Renegade Soundwave applied the punk and industrial ethic to both dub and dancefloor electronica, in good company with fellow sound terrorists throughout the decade, from Cabaret Voltaire to Skinny Puppy and Meat Beat Manifesto.
The group consisted of Gary Asquith, Danny Briottet, and Carl Bonnie.
As a further note: The versions of “Cocaine Sex (Sub-Aqua Overdrive Dub)” and “Bonus Porno Beats” on the subsequent 1992 CD single re-release, are noticeably sped-up and, consequently, shorter than they appear here.
