Dolulus was a solo project by Jean-Marie Tschanz and aimed at getting the utmost of a single yet high-tech "sound box": sound module Roland JV 1080. It was programmed with Cubase 2.0 on Mac LC 630 between july 1995 and april 1998 (except for some minor corrections) . The project was split on 2 CDs released on january of 1999. Three noticeable ingredients are the extensive use of what sounds like tuned LFO (cf "...Bienvenue" hereunder), flanged resonances played as notes (cf "Bhôô" 1'01"-1'20"), and the use of programmed pitch-bending as way to work on sound colors and edit spicy solos / appoggiaturas. One can often find those features on later partly-programmed partly human-performed tracks involving Dolulus's programmer (cf Gnohgnuhgnlus and Improvs... ). Mostly nurtured by all "major" prog + avant bands, and some classic orchestral work by 1998, this project went to places that could meet the avant / experimental niche tag policy. Enjoy two photos: the place where Dolulus was all programmed and, almost done with soon-to-be-called Dolulus, Jean-Marie Tschanz on May 1th, 1998. On with the sound...

Experimental noise, sound collages... Avant or Prog Electronic? Will ask the PE Team for their thoughts.

Dolulus has now a successor called Gnohgnuhgnlus ("Gnohgnuhgnlus" sounds like someone very old trying to pronounce "Dolulus").
I find it tidier to have it linked to Dolulus as the same project since it's just another way to similar music , except that I don't think the team would call it "progressive electronic", since it has much fewer electronic sounds. Should I prepare another bio for Gnohgnuhgnlus... or should the Dolulus page become Dolulus / Gnohgnuhgnlus progressive electronic / other tags – is now the point (isn't it ?... ). Thanks again for the efforts in management. |
