This route is not direct. The time of embarkation is summer 1989, our point of departure, Club
Barraca, Valencia, the epicentre of La Ruta Del Bakalao. Passengers on this journey are Martyn
Walsh, bass player and songwriter of Manchester band Inspiral Carpets and Sean Johnston, the
band's booking agent and aspiring DJ. Our passengers will travel via separate routes, Martyn will
sign to Mute Records and become the author of numerous top 40 hits and perform a myriad of
worldwide shows. Sean will become a successful underground dance music producer as the
Hardway Bros and DJ partner to the late Andrew Weatherall as A Love from Outer Space. Pulled
back together by the gravitational waves of Weatherall's untimely demise earlier this year, this is
the music of their journey , ¡La Ruta!
