Colin Langenus

One of the great DIY musicians of our time, Colin and his face-melting guitar licks have been a fixture in the New York City underground for close to a decade. After touring extensively for years with his seminal band USAISAMONSTER, he has since spread out his musical stylings in a major way. You can find him tearing it up at Shea these days on a fairly regular basis with a multitude of different projects, but most often as the bandleader of two very different large ensembles: the CSC Funk Band and his own Colin L Orchestra, as well as his acid rock power trio Alien Whale (all of which can be heard in our archives). If you total all of his various projects with all the friends that he has met along the way, Colin has been involved with the release of over 100 records to date, the vast majority of which have been put out by his homegrown MASSIVE DISTRIBUTION label. Given this information, it should come as no surprise that he contributed a playlist as thorough and as massive as his own creative output. -AR
