Lederman, Jean-marc
Music For Dinosaurs
"Jean-Marc Ledermans Music for Dinosaurs is not a requiem for extinct creatures, but in fact an homage to fascinating animals with proven social behavior. Dinosaurs probably communicated with each other by means of sound, among other things. Whether these sounds resembled those of todays animals we do not know, but we do enjoy speculating about it. This is indeed reflected by the large number of vinyl records and CDs with "dinosaur voices": recording media, which some of us humans now ironically refer to as "fossils" in their own right. "Technofossils" come face to face with simulated dinosaur voices ... and now with Music for Dinosaurs as well. The music of Jean-Marc Lederman may be understood as a thank you from Homo sapiens to the dinosaurs. (...)" So start the liner notes by Dr. Achim G. Reisdorf - Geologist at the Ruhr Museaum Foundation in Essen, Germany. No "invented" or "imagined" dinosounds here and no ambient or soundscapes this time, but instrumental electro to dance or sit in your chair if you're not the dancing kind ;-) "And dont forget to play Jean-Marc Ledermans music loud - the past is millions of years ago!" Indeed.
