Noisecapades - The Kaleidoscopic Sounds of Arto Lindsay

Arto Lindsay was the man of the hour on this week's show and he is da man! His CV is too long to list but I'd like to do a few highlights.

U.S. born Arto Lindsay spent a good chunk of his formative years in Brazil. He later went to NYC and, captivated by the 80s downtown art scene, became a major part of the No Wave experimental movement that was taking place. Luminaries or more aptly, anti-luminaries in this scene included Lady Lydia Lunch of Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, Mr. Glenn Branca of the Theoretical Girls and James Chance and the Contortions. Arto got major cred from his no wave unit DNA which, was featured in a Brian Eno produced compilation "No New York". After exiting DNA Lindsay joined a zillion projects (okay, not a zillion) but several around the same time frame including The Ambitious Lovers, The Lounge Lizards and the Golden Palominos all of which are featured in this weeks broadcast. The latter was a project spearheaded by Feelies drummer, Anton Fier.

Arto's eclecticism has led him through the gamut from the extremely experimental to pop to Muscia Popular do Brasil (MPB). Arto has established a prolific career as collaborator with a number of major Brazilian artists and in his own solo career has often sang in Portuguese and fused Bossa Nova styles with other genres to forge unique sounds. For more deets on Arto check out his site http://www.artolindsay.com

What makes Arto Lindsay such an intriguing subject (and person) is his eclecticism. I definitely identify with that. Cultural eclecticism translates to musical eclecticism in this case and that's what resonates with me. Arto hits A-Z from hip hop & punk to free jazz to Bossa Nova to pure pop (well not so pure because there's always his own twist to it). Anyways, the appeal is there and whatever he does, you can be guaranteed that it won't be dull and will have alot of soul and visceral feeling to it. Keep it up Arto Lindsay. I tip my hat to ya.

I've pointed out in the set list any musical contributions made by Arto Lindsay featured in this week's show. As always, I'm glad you tuned in. If you want to hear some of Arto's tunes check out this weeks show at:
