RIP Hector Zazou

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

French composer and renowned world music producer Hector Zazou in a French hospital on September 8th aged 60. Zazou had fallen seriously ill earlier this year and had to cancel several performances during the summer. Zazou has been working with classical, ambient electronic, pop, and world music artists including Anneli Drecker (Bel Canto), Björk, Peter Gabriel, Brian Eno, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Lisa Gerrard, John Cale, Siouxsie, David Sylvian, Suzanne Vega and many others. The best known albums from Zazou are "Sahara Blue" (based on the work of the French poet Arthur Rimbaud featuring David Sylvian, Anneli Drecker, Bill Laswell, Dead Can Dance, etc) and "Songs From The Cold Seas" (featuring Värttina, Suzanne Vega, Björk, Siouxsie and so on).
