DESCRIPTION:
Revered for his personal take on modern Brazilian music (five solo albums, production work for Caetano Veloso and Marisa Monte etc.), Arto Lindsay seldom works as a remixer. Produced with his sometime-collaborator bassist Melvin Gibbs (of Defunkt, Rollins band and Sonny Sharrock Band fame), his contribution to Electric Gypsyland is therefore suprising on more than one count, as it is strangely reminiscent of New York's early 80s minimal/rock/noise scene (of which Arto's band DNA was an integral part). http://www.discogs.com/Various-Electric-Gypsyland/release/254290
