NoddY RioT
☆☆☆☆☆NoddY RioT☆☆☆☆☆ ..also known as drDJ or ODDMUSIC (on/off bands name and originally title of a Noddy riot's mixtape). NODDY RiOT performed his own songs since the age of 14, adored the pre-punk Pippi Longstocking so much that there was no getting rid of his silly voices (his own background choir) anymore! Released the 7" 'Puberpunk' of which the name is still used as a logo or on punk/underground/squat party flyers, not calling it underground, it's called Upground Music, calling his sound a Funkypunkpopdubmix.
NODDY RiOT won the PARADISO Talent gala at age 15 and performed for KATE BUSH her party, shared the dressingroom with her (him very proud, being a huge Kate fan) and appeared with her on pictures in Dutch popmagazines. Had the lead in an Annie mg Schmidt musical when he was 10, and lived in squats with punks since the age of 12. Most notable was his relationship with ex-girlfriend NINA HAGEN, two colorful punks with silly voices. Was for one TV show (bios bahnhof) in her band, more as a 'Ziggy played guitar' gimmick, he said, 'cause there wasnt a new guitarist yet'. They sang a rapduet together live at the ONE WORLD POETRY FESTIVAL (a rhcp song) and various (gossip/pop) magazines wrote if he was the father of her daughter or not, or that they supposedly got married on the Bahama's.
Known for living all over the world (became 18 in New York) and did (or does) some serious clubbing from Danceteria to the Mudclub etc. Recorded the deep dub beat track 'System' long before House or Sputnik. His music is on the American doc.movie 'Sex, Drugs & Democracy' about the dutch constitution, (making it clear that he never used hard-drugs, hardly ever drinks, is known for drinking chocolatemilk at parties and only smokes the Ganja.) On various tv shows with 'BomberjAck' & his own style of club songs.
Released the radioshow-like cd 'This HeAvy High' with raving reviews from serious music magazines, (OOR, Fret, Expreszo etc.) making the cd appear in shops all over the world! Recorded from London to Amsterdam, and aside from his own songs he wrote tracks with his musicians Peppz and Tomm. note; guitarist Bram B. has been his musician on most tracks and many a years, and is married to mr.RioT's sister. the album/cd even resulted in a phonecall from Barry Hay (Golden Earring) telling Noddy he's talented and that he likes the cd.
Noddy is also known for his looks and outspoken character, modelling and lived happily through the best of the artistic scenes but always keeping his own (timeless) sound.
