Angus MacLise

Thursday Mayhem 12 from 10:P to 2:A
The Angus MacLise Special
Hosted by Justin Outlier
Poet, percussionist, calligrapher, mystic, shaman and visionary musical GOD who quit Velvet Underground when he discovered they were to be paid for their first gig. A purist of soul and music, MacLise never compromised and his recordings prove it. He was a primary member of the minimalist counter-culture along with Tony Conrad, La Monte Young, John Cale, Ira Cohen, Terry Riley and others. MacLise's sound is an iconoclastic juggernaut that fuses many influences into entirely original and unmistakeable forms. A scholar of Buddhism, he traveled the East in search of truth forsaking the 'satire material universe'. Anyone desiring an arsenal of music that has powers to repel commercialism at its core - listen no further than the work of Angus MacLise!
