« Chez Dupont, tout est bon » (S. Loupien, Libération )
Dupont T : "Spider's Dance" is the new recording of the acoustic trio plus Rudresh Mahanthappa, actually it's a quartet.
In search of a modern folklore, the poetic alchemy in his music shows his fascination for new forms - improvisation has to be a game with new rules – as well as unexpected elements of rooted traditions, with an expressive and steady tone.
...from formal constraints to total improvisation; from pure acoustic to pure electronic…
« Révélation 2005 » in Guitarist-Bass for his solo album « Ultraboles », he plays the double-bass in KARTET (since 1990 with Benoît Delbecq, Guillaume Orti, Chander Sardjoe), and electric bass in THÔT, Stéphane Payen’s band with Gilles Coronado and Christophe Lavergne.
He co-leads SAWADU, with Cameroon master drummer Brice Wassy and guitarist Hervé Samb, from Senegal.
He performed and recorded with such jazzmen as Robin Eubanks, Harold Land, Steve Lacy, Glenn Ferris, or Jozef Dumoulin, slammer Felix J, Laurent De Wilde, Magic Malik, Hasse Poulsen, Stefano Di Battista, Fabrizio Cassol, Mathias Ruegg, Paolo Fresu, Noël Akchoté, Matthieu Donarier, Manu Codjia, Carlo Rizzo, Steve Argüelles, Pepa Päivinen, Stephane Galland, Mathieu Michel, Wolfgang Puschnig, the Vancouver Improvisers’ Collective... as well as the parisian underground scene.
Out of jazz, he also performed with Fodé Diop Sabar Group (Sabar Ring), with Kamilya Jubran, Nabil Khalidi, Toufic Farroukh, Elie Maalouf, Youssef Hbeisch, Joshua Levitt, Saeid Shanbehzadeh…
