Review

For three albums now, Arto Lindsay has done his best to be a modern-day Antonio Carlos Jobim. Backed with subtle electronica sounds (yes, it's possible) and guitar, the ballads and bossa novas found on Noon Chill are some of his finest. Lindsay is at his best on tracks like "Simply Are," a jazzy number with great vocals that serenades your stereo speakers. Great stuff. --Jason VerlindeEven in Arto Lindsay's guitar skronk days, the tropicalia music he grew up with in Brazil remained a primary influence. Now with his recent solo albums, Lindsay's musical vision as a postmodern tropicalista has truly flowered. He tentatively explored bossa nova in 1996's O Corpo Sutil then boldly plunged forward by adding trip-hoppy beats and textures on 1997's Mundo Civilizado and to his remixes on Hyper Civilizado. This installment, Noon Chill, unites these adaptations and appropriations with his more discordant past. The results provide a climax for Lindsay's Brazilian trilogy, and his richest, most realized statement yet.

Noon Chill starts with spare guitar and percussion rhythms, then overlays off-kilter sound treatments to provide depth and drama without adding distraction. Lindsay's quiet, warm vocals make up in phrasing and melodic subtlety what they lack in power. Sensual and often startling, Noon Chill introduces the unlikely joys of avant-garde make-out music. --Roni Sarig
