SÉBASTIEN GRAMOND
He’s a French musician born in 1974. The scope of his musical work is enormous – he started playing violin at the age of 6, switched to the drums, been self-taught on guitar, bass and keyboards (he’s also singing). In the late 80’s, he started performing hard rock/heavy music in the vein of AC/DC. However, in the 90’s he expanded his musical horizons, and he started incorporating various shades of progressive rock in his musical solo output (sometimes with his trio in various incarnation, sometimes as a soloist playing all instruments). Aside his solo career – which is astounding in its quantity as well as diversity, he has been active as a session musician, producer, composer and arranger in styles varying from hip-hop, to experimental jazz, to Zeuhl. He is known in prog rock circles also as a member of 4/3 DE TRIO, or lastly with his new band Sulphat’ Ketamine We made a track together – Une Charogne (Charles Baudelaire) – where I cured the music and he did the narrator, reciting the poem by Baudelaire. That track was made on purpose for a collective record by The Sound of Apskaft, APSKAFT PRESENTS: POEMS. | ||

DOUG SHARP
He’s a great programmer, he worked for Microsoft and for the mighty software house Cinemaware creating one of their great games, The King of Chicago. Being a full steam eclectic guy, he’s of course also a sci-fi writer (Channel Zilch) and a crazy musician. I didn’t play with him, but I made a remix (plus added new parts played by me, here and there) of an entire record by him, and he was satisfied by the results. | ||
