Ex-WFMU dj encyclopedic appreciation of myriad musical styles. I wanted to be Carmen Miranda when I was a kid. Lost count of octave range. Was on the radio in high school and again on WFMU (1985-1991); absolutely unprofessional sounding with a smattering of Ethel Merman belting.

Encyclopediac One:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMG REVIEW: From the beginning of their relationship, radio personality and singer Krystyna Olsiewicz has been a permanent fixture on her husband R. Stevie Moore's albums. 1996's Encyclopediac is a two-disc sampling of some of Olsiewicz's most memorable moments from Moore's albums. These range from "She Has Power," a tape collage built around one of Olsiewicz's monologues from her days as a star DJ at New Jersey's legendary WFMU, and the utterly glorious "Hasty Banana," a strange but wonderful faux-tropical piece of exotica kitsch with an infectious wordless chorus and a delightfully odd musical and lyrical structure, to a collection of covers highlighted by a swell, hard-rocking version of the early Sparks nugget "Here Comes Bob" and two terrific Bay City Rollers homages. A thoroughly entertaining collection with no filler, Encyclopediac is both a musical love letter from Moore, the album's compiler, to his better half and an often fascinating introduction to a hidden talent.

Encyclopediac Two:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMG REVIEW: An even better follow-up to 1996's Encyclopediac, 1999's Encyclopediac Two collects several years' worth of recordings by New Jersey-based singer/radio personality Krystyna Olsiewicz. Most of these originally appeared on albums by Olsiewicz's husband, R. Stevie Moore, who plays nearly all the instruments and provides most of the backing vocals. Aside from a brief and rackety original, "Torture Us," and two versions of the sublime, Stereolab-like "Where We Are Right Now" (a slightly longer, more low-key take and the original that appeared on the now out of print German CD-EP Objectivity, a collaboration between Moore and Yukio Yung), all the tracks are covers in a wide variety of styles. Only Olsiewicz and Moore could swing so easily from utterly straight versions of the gloriously sappy '70s AM hits "Precious and Few" and "Where Do the Children Play" to a clattering, dub-style version of Public Image Ltd's "Poptones" to a terrific, lo-fi acoustic version of the Motown standard "The One Who Really Loves You." Olsiewicz is an appealing singer whose voice may seem a bit thin at first, but who manages both a playfully sexy growl (a gender-twisted version of Terence Trent D'Arby's "She Kissed Me") and an angelic soprano (a version of Joni Mitchell's "Carey" that ups the pop-song potential hinted at in the original) with aplomb and approaches even difficult material with casual ease.

thanks for the addage! I was scouring the net to find out who did the vox on 'where we are right now' and ended up here! Wow, nice Lulu cover =D. Also it's a pleasure to 'meet' the person who saved that Robert Moore bloke. Hope all be well, Januscz xxx
