While he found the most success as a dance music artist, Russell’s career bridged New York’s downtown, rock, and dance music scenes; his collaborators ranged from Philip Glass to David Byrne to Nicky Siano. Relatively unknown during his life, a series of reissues and posthumous releases has raised his profile in recent years. He died in ‘92 of Aids but his sound continues to resonate in a big way. He has a great range of music due to his endless studies of instruments and cultural sounds.
