I didn't see this thread in the index so I made it. Any Dhomont fans around these parts?

sounds like he's swiping a "bit" from Frank Zappa
Saint-Saëns, who predicted to Charles Lecocq in 1901: 'That fellow Ravel seems to me to be destined for a serious future.'

Forum member sanantonio has blogged about him previously:

This is okay to post here?  Apologies if not the case.

Anyway, he turned me on to this composer with his review of this ~

Ohhhh sorry...I didn't see that! Perhaps merge this thread with that one?

I'm going with 'Dhomont's Dome', straight, to the point, and spaceage ;)


Though, 'Dhomont's Dimensions' has a nice ring to it...


and no, I can't remember what his music sounds like... not the 'Frankenstein' fella?

'Collected sounds' amd musique concrète I think. Although some of it does sound very space-agey (like 'Novars')

I shall listen to Forêt Profonde tonight. Very cool music.
