March 1, 2012: Busy Doing Nothing with Charlie: Slow Repetition for Radio Boredcast

CHARLIE: BUSY DOING NOTHING – SLOW REPETITION FOR RADIO BOREDCAST

Experimental, pop, hip-hop, comedy, and spoken-word audio pieces which use repetition as a formal device. I love a joke that repeats itself. I love a joke that repeats itself. (Charlie Lewis)

Charlie Lewis has been compiling music since he got a tape recorder at age eight, but it was not until his involvement with WFMU that he was able to foist his musical conglomerations on the public at large. He has been doing just that, both at that beacon of freeform radio and at other stations, and also for fashion shows and such, since 1996. He has played in various combos, and written lots of music, but has yet to outdo this work. Charlie worked in broadcast audio and in the music business for many years, but now does the more honest work of selling patent medicine.
