About
Davy Walklett is an experimental and noise artist active in the underground music scene during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Operating primarily within the cassette culture that characterized independent experimental music distribution of the era, Walklett released a series of provocatively titled works that reflected the transgressive aesthetic of industrial and noise music communities. His releases, including Sacred Hymns And Twisted Blues (1989), Genitalmania (1989), and Songs of West from the Pelvic Girdle (1990), were issued on small independent labels including Underground Productions, Jarmusic, and G.T.O.G. Productions. These cassette-based releases suggest Walklett worked within the DIY ethos of underground experimental music, contributing to the broader landscape of noise, dark ambient, and avant-garde artistic expression that flourished in cassette networks during this period. Limited documentation exists regarding Walklett's broader influence or collaborations, though his body of work represents a segment of esoteric underground experimental music production that remains largely archival in nature.
