The Nature of Imitation is the sound of Dorian Concept systematically deconstructing various genres, stripping them back to the bones underneath and then rearranging them one layer at a time until he has a new form. ( Read More )

Ken Hanke
He made the absurdity of it all part of the fun, allowing it all to be cool and not the canned theater that audiences had come to expect. ( Read More )
