Yeah, he's quite the busy dude! LOL All of these albums have been released from 2004 onward, and it really amazes me that his music is so good, even though all of the albums are made on the fly. Some of his albums have some industrial & doom metal influence (e.g. growling) that I'm confident you wouldn't be much of a fan of, but he has a lot of ambient, ethnic, and Egyptian music that I find pretty enjoyable (provided that I'm in the mood for it). I haven't downloaded most of his albums, but all of his albums have a brief description of what type of music they are. It's pretty helpful when you're looking for a specific type of music, because his discography spans so many different genres.

Happy listening! LOL

Now that Senmuth is added to PA, his entire discography (well over 60 albums) is available free of charge from his website. His music spans many different genres, and is VERY high quality, especially considering his productivity level.

Thank you for telling us here! It's very much appreciated. Clap

I've been searching for "Proud sons of the suburbs" for some time now. That album isn't even available on cdbaby.

As much as I like the downloads it  is still depressing that he needs to give so many of his albums away for free. Does anybody here know if and where I can  pay for the album? I don't see a contribution-button anywhere on the bandcamp site.

All songs are in mp3/320 kpbs.

I only heard two songs yet. They were characterized by:
  • Use of drums, percussion and rhythm patterns uncommon to western music.
  • Dreamy/floating female vocals.
  • Electric guitar alternating between dreamy/spacey and hard rock
The production quality is very good, certainly up to cd standard imo.

So far they don't sound typically "Neo" to me. The dreamy and/or cheesy keyboards are missing. I'd say listeners who like uncommon percussion and eastern influences should check them out.
Listning now - Like it a lot so far - thanks.
On a side note - I wish they would stay just a tiny bit more Pakistani (like on the opening track)

Dunphy is placed in Crossover in the database here. Rather varied music, different from album to album. Well worth a check despite a few shortcomings.

Any recommendations of a good album to start off with?


I've reviewed Enigmatic, and that one contained enough good material to be a nice place to start. The albums fore and after are rather different from what I understand though, so approaching them with an open mind is probably the best approach in general.

I do that with every band.  Thanks for the suggestion. Thumbs Up
