Arthur Loves Plastic

Though probably unintentional, the image of the cat (the titular, dearly departed Arthur) romping using a supermarket bag evokes the type of playful resourcefulness that fuels Bev Stanton’s techno sound adventures. The D.C.-region manufacturer creates multi-layered, hyperkinetic atmospheres from a straightforward basement set up, often incorporating the passionate vocals of regional jazz-folk singer Lisa Moscatiello, aswell seeing that potent soundbites and various other ephemera. Stanton’s prolific discography varies in shade from record to record, but a festive, danceable thread operates through all of them. The Bahamian-born, Florida-raised Stanton provides released about one full-length function each year since 1995 (generally on her very own Machine Heart Information), punctuated by the casual spirited remix collection, and offers received multiple “Wammies” (Washington Region Music Honours). She’s also created noises for theater, tv shows, dance items, and marketing, and has turned into a popular Beltway golf club DJ.
