Further Excursions Into The Ulu With Dollboy



Oliver Cherer – the aural alchemist behind Dollboy – has quietly gone about making a name for himself on the margins of British underground pop music for well over a decade now. From his early days spent gratifyingly abusing a Theremin in big-beat band, Cooler, to his Dollboy stage nameʼs forays into soft-focus movements of psycho geographically informed ambient music, Chererʼs is a restless, creative muse. Recent collaborations have seen him fashion soundscapes with Sone Institute whilst he also plays a part in the cottage industry collective, Second Language Music, currently working with Piano Magic, Isan and British psychedelic folk legend, Mark Fry, on a soon to be revealed project. Dollboyʼs previous long-player was A Beard of Bees which heralded (in customarily hushed tones) a fresh sonic journey …ʼIf the Tardis spat Edward Elgar out into a Shropshire glade with a Roland DX7, a guitar and no direction home, you suspect that the results would not be dissimilarʼ said The Times. They werenʼt far off. With that in mind, consider Dollboyʼs newest collection of songs, Further Excursions Into The Ulu with Dollboy. Read more on Last.fm.
