phil kooky

About me:

Kooky is Phil and Alex. And sometimes Kooky is Alex and Phil. But always with a lot of calling in favours from our friends. In particular we would not have existed without the encouragement and support of our friend Keith Jenkins (Wurlitzer Jukebox). We started the label in 1996 with the money Alex got in compensation for a beating he took at the Shepherds Bush Empire. A small amount of money for a big kicking, but on the up-side, it was also enough to put out a split single featuring our chum Mick Harrison from Prolapse (Ears Go FFF!). Friends were dismayed that the NME described it as the sound of killing flies with a Black and Decker sander, but we were thrilled. We sold out on pre-sale. Since those days we have released several singles, split-singles, extended plays and albums - including ( in no particular order )gnac ( hi Mark) Formula One, Pram Seafood, Durutti Column, Topper, L'augmentation, The Retro Spankees and The Parks Dept. We want to be entertained by music and we want to entertain other people too with it... Please send us your demo's come and say hello and let us hear you.
