Drawing from local non-profit Archive Montreal’s huge collection of local music scene material, Montreal Sound Ark brings you the best of the Montreal underground from yesterday.
Interviews, memories, insights and accompanying ephemera on the show’s blog will flesh out the journey through three decades of do-it-yourself sounds in Montreal. Hosted by longtime scenester and digger Louis Rastelli (DJ LRX80) with regular guests and guest DJs.
