Dirty Beaches is the rockabilly-nowave-hiphop project of Alex Zhang Hungtai, a bicoastal Canadian of Taiwanese birth and no place of his own. Dirty Beaches play displacement anthems for biker westerns starring Alan Vega and directed by David Lynch. A series of cassettes and split releases with folks like U.S. Girls and Ela Orleans lead to 2011's full-length "Badlands", an instant FMU hit and one of Scott's top records of the year. Joining him on guitar is Shub Roy. (Scott Williams, WFMU, 2012)
