Hey, does anyone know what name(s) Gary Dourdan uses when producing shit? I'm just a little curious. I know that he and KCRW's Garth Trinidad have some music supervising company, and I've read that he produces stuff in "the UK", but he always does it under various names...

Anyone else hear of this?

Or anyone know of any "famous celebrity types" who actually produce/make decent music? (And the theme song to the O.C. don't count for nothin')

Say WHAT?!?!

Must investigate.

I know, I know, but my P.I. skills haven't been able to find even a single clue....

From Africana:

Well, we have a recording studio and have been releasing a lot of projects and compilations throughout the U.K. and Europe. I like to use pseudonyms for each project because there’s nothing worse than an actor trying to sing – no one’s looking for an old Don Johnson or Eddie Murphy album at a garage sale, you know? So, I’ve tried to put out good music and have people listen and make their judgment based on the music rather than the notoriety that I have as an actor. We’ve been pretty successful and we’re still building.

Garth Trinidad from KCRW (LA), Mathieu Schreyer (a producer) and I have a company called Metisse. We’re working on music supervising some films, cutting some tracks and also, trying to get more artists, who need to be heard, on the air with Garth. There are a lot of great artists, like Zero 7, Jill Scott, Beck, Bjork and even Norah Jones, who got their start through word-of-mouth. These kinds of artists don’t get played in the middle of the dial, so we’re trying to re-shape more radio and video stations. We want to expose the better music out there — that’s the strength of our company.

I bet I have some of his stuff. What, though?

This is some reverse Rex the Dog shit. Ungh.

Yeah, I've looked up the Metisse thing--there's weekly that Trinidad does by the same name...

I'm just picturing Warrick Brown hanging with Afronaught, Seiji, and the rest of the BITA boys...
