Rude 66

Rude 66 (real name Ruud Lekx; born in Delft in 1966) is a Dutch electronic musician and recording artist currently living in Amsterdam.

Rude 66 started as a musician in the '80s, playing keyboards in Noise band Kamika6 who gained some notoriety in the Dutch underground scene but only produced a demo cassette.

These albums all have the typical Bunker Records look: there is no sleeve and there are no track titles: the only info is the artist name and the catalogue number on the black label.

From 2005–2011 Rude 66 released his main output on the Creme Organisation label, including Black Sabbath (2005), the 1000 Year Storm (2007), As (2008) and the Sadistic Tendencies album.

A big difference between the earlier Bunker releases and Rude's post-1998 output is the addition of his wife Shaunna on vocals, mostly sung through a vocoder which gives the voice a robotic quality.

She also plays the live shows and contributes to the lyrics, which usually have a dark content matter (serial killers, psychopaths, war themes, etc.)

He started the Vynalogica label in 2000, where invited modern dance music artists could work with the studio's vintage modular synthesizers and the results were released as vinyl ep's.
