On the brink of the nationwide release of Ari Gold’s new album Transport Systems, set to drop October 2nd, be prepared to experience music video history with “Where The Music Takes You,” an animated futuristic adventure directed by acclaimed illustrator Joe Phillips. The video made its world premiere on MTV’s LOGO network and continues to get picked up by HBO Zone, Promo Only and more…..
“Where The Music Takes You” music video follows pop star/superhero Ari Gold and his Afro-Diva cohort, Sasha Allen, on the discovery of a new world; a world in desperate need of some good music, color and, most of all, love. Can one gay kiss save this brand new world? Don’t miss this groundbreaking, fun and sexy new video where Metropolis meets Jem and Holograms.
Born and raised in the Bronx, and currently living in “hipster central” on the lower east side of Manhattan, Gold has already been coined a “gay icon” and is a self described “homofessional gaylebrity.” His much anticipated third studio album has already been receiving rave reviews along with sold-out shows from coast to coast. Here’s a sampling of what’s recently been said about Ari’s new album and his live concerts.
“Ari wrote a very personal album and the lyrics attest to the battles that he’s been through...he writes from the heart.”
- CLIVE DAVIS
“Ari Gold certainly stands out from the pack...[he] deserves credit for tackling lyrical subjects not usually linked with dance pop which he boldly does throughout Transport Systems.”
- All Music Guide
“The stage at Joe’s Pub seemed almost too small to hold Ari...amazing voice and a great live performer!”
- Brooklyn Rocks
“His velvet vocals and superb delivery soar ideas through space and time to infectious and clubby beats from the bedroom to the dancefloor...he’s erasing the barriers of queer artists in the music industry.”
- San Francisco Bay Times
“His music can best be described as ‘political pop’ and Gold has never shied away from the perspective of an openly gay man”.
- GREG HERNANDEZ of LA Daily News
