About
The Twins & Rig Veeda were an experimental and industrial music project active during the mid-1980s, operating within the underground cassette culture and independent record label ecosystem of that era. Their output, spanning releases between 1986 and 1987, demonstrates a commitment to avant-garde aesthetics and unconventional approaches to sound design. The project's discography includes The Tale Of The Man With The Toothpaste Head, released on vinyl through Illusion Production in 1986, alongside cassette releases A Banana Fish On The Moon and Boy Saves Hedgehog, both issued on the Bi-Joopiter label. The titles suggest surrealist or absurdist sensibilities, hinting at experimental conceptual frameworks underlying their work. Operating during a period of flourishing independent and underground music production, The Twins & Rig Veeda contributed to the broader experimental music scene, utilizing both traditional and alternative distribution formats. While details regarding their specific sonic approach and long-term influence remain limited, their presence in archival records underscores the diverse output of 1980s experimental music practitioners working outside mainstream channels.
