Purist electro-tech star Andrea Parker chatted to Skrufff this week about her upcoming sponsored hike up Kenya’s 5,500 metre high Mount Kilimanjaro and revealed that, despite her charitable inclinations, she remains fiercely opposed to electroclash.
“I absolutely hate electroclash with a passion, I can’t stand it,” she stormed, “I used to be a proper B girl back in the day with all the breaking crews and this electroclash nonsense has almost taken over.”
“I’m in more of a purist electro scene, I don’t like all the poppy electro at all, “ Andrea added, “Electro has always been so underground and that’s been one of the main things I’ve always liked about it, there’s not that many people into it, just small pockets around the world,” she explained.
The cheerfully outspoken Londoner, however, denied she’d once threatened to attack Fischerspooner frontman Casey Spooner, stressing she’d never told DJ magazine she ‘just wanted to punch his fucking eyes out’.
“I didn’t actually say I’d punch his fucking eyes out,” Andrea insisted. “I said I’d rather stick needles in my eyes than listen to that song Emerge.”
