Nohno is the latest project of Dean Dennis for this new adventure Dean is joined by co-conspirator Jose Snook.
We find it hard to talk about ourselves and our work. So in brief we aim to make music that has some depth, that can tell a story, spark the imagination and that can bring pleasure and lift the spirit.
When someone else writes something complimentary it is always good to share. Here is something that a nice person said about Nohno and the first release:
"Nohno is the most recent creative outpouring from Dean Dennis, a name associated with early electronic and industrial music purveyors Clock DVA. Known for their emphasis of man-machine interfaces and history of musique concrete techniques, it is not surprising that Nohno is an enlightened descendant of these roots (and by extrapolation, the applied Kraftwerkian foundations). Found within "Metropolis" is a likely fusion of old-school industrial electronics and experimental jazz, wrapped in the unassuming guise of languorous tech-house styles. It is a well-balanced mixture of sharp electronic rhythms, shimmering orchestral accents and spacey abstractions.
............................ the disc enjoys a natural diversity. With this proliferation of sounds, Nohno has sculpted a hybridized dichotomy, deploying cold robotic mechanics hand-in-hand with fertile organics. The resulting "Metropolis" is brimming with its own ingenious offspring,"
-- Dutton Hauhart 2006 www.connexionbizarre.net
He said this without any form of bribery or coercion, and as far as we know Dutton has no blood ties with Nohno
Nohno’s first release made its appearance in 2006.
There are a few remaining copies of “Metropolis†if any one would like to add to their collection
Next full time release TBC (2008/2009)
HISTORY
If you are interested in music history and want to find out more about Dean’s past then you are welcome to read the Discog. blog
This lists all the releases made with Clock DVA, Sector, and TAGC and also includes other biographical info.
Reading this may also help to clarify any confusion about roles and contributions made to earlier projects. There seems to a little bit of misinformation being spread from some areas.
