Little Fyodor〔(Allmusic.com bio of Walls of Genius, Richie Unterberger )〕〔(Little Fyodor & Babushka Celebrate 20 Years, Optical Atlas March 6, 2009 )〕 is the performance name of Dave Lichtenberg, an underground punk/garage musician from Denver, Colorado, who has been on the scene for two decades. He originally performed in the band Walls of Genius, and then went on to become a solo act (now with a full band, but still carrying the name Little Fyodor). He is also known as a public radio DJ, and a reviewer of self-published music. == Biography == Little Fyodor is originally from suburban New Jersey where during college he was particularly inspired by the original album ''Leave Home'' including the song "Carbona Not Glue".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://archive.org/details/LittleFyodorOrh )〕 He moved to Colorado in 1981. In the 1980s he was a member of Walls of Genius, a cassette culture band which consisted of Little Fyodor, Evan Cantor, Ed Fowler and Brad Cartin,〔(Aural Innovations #22, January 2003 )〕 an experimental group from Colorado which produced 30 tapes from 1982 to 1986. Dave Lichtenberg later went on to work on his solo project Little Fyodor. Little Fyodor is also notable for his association with the Elephant 6 collective. The Apples in Stereo performed some of their earliest shows opening for his band. "Let it be known that the very first time the Apples ever performed with a real drum set, they were opening for Little Fyodor and Babushka." Returning the favor, Fyodor's record "Dance of the Salted Slug" was released on the Elephant 6 label. In 1993 he toured with Negativland. Before moving to Denver, Lichtenberg had a show on WTJU, the student-run station at the University of Virginia. Now, as Little Fyodor, he hosts a biweekly radio show every other Saturday at 11 PM on Boulder's KGNU titled "Under the Floorboards", which showcases obscure artists. 2011 marks the 27th anniversary of Little Fyodor’s career as a DJ at KGNU. After an initial interview in 1997,〔(Getting Closer to God with Little Fyodor and Babushka ) interview excerpt〕 Little Fyodor also began a column based on his radio show, "A Few of the Interesting Characters I've Discovered Under the Floorboards", in Denver-based fringe magazine CyberPsychos AOD. After a live appearance by Little Fyodor and Babushka at the Death Equinox '97 convention, attendees were so enthusiastic about the performance that they requested having them play every year. Little Fyodor became the con's Audial Terror Guest of Honor in '98 as a result, and they continued to play every year. Rev. Ivan Stang of the Church of the SubGenius witnessed their '98 performance and asked them to play at the next X-Day gathering.〔(Little Fyodor's Death Equinox Guest of Honor Bio )〕 Denver group Von Hemmling was reportedly named by Fyodor.〔(Optical Atlas, 6 Questions with: Jim McIntyre )〕 As of June 2015 the group is still performing.〔https://www.reverbnation.com/littlefyodor〕〔http://blogs.westword.com/backbeat/2011/04/the_inactivists_april_1_2011.php〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little Fyodor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
