Pioneering neo classical / electronica band Digitonal werefounded by Andy Dobson, clarinetist, soundtrack composer, DJ andkeyboard guru and his partner, celebrated violinist Samy Bishai.Drawing comparisons to Orbital, Philip Glass and Steve Reich,their tenth year sees the release of a newly mastered andreworked retrospective album, Be Still My Bleeping Heart.The idea behind Be Still My Bleeping Heart was not as a kind ofbest of, but a collection of early tracks released on tiny littlebedroom labels put together into a proper album, a coherent pieceof work, says Digitonals Andy Dobson of the 11 tracks on thisCD, recorded between 2002-2008As a concept this is a pretty basic thing, he admits. I wouldgo home after clubbing in the early to mid 90s and typically playa mixture of The Orb, Future Sound Of London, Orbital and thenSteve Reich, Philip Glass and Michael Nyman. I was seeing directparallels and in The Orbs case, on ?Little Fluffy Clouds, adirect sample [of Reichs Electric Counterpoint]. I felt it was agenre where I could collate a massive range of influences andmusical signatures. And I always wanted to work with classicalmusicians.
