Moondog

Moondog —born Louis Thomas Hardin (1916-1999)—stands as a visionary avant-garde icon, bridging the gap between classical composition, primal rhythms and the pulse of the New York streets. Also known as "The Viking of 6th Avenue", this timeless artist crafts a singular universe through his invention of instruments, mastery of counterpoint and rhythmic soundscapes… An apparent nonchalance, often underpinned by a complex musical architecture in a blend of cultures.
