Bounte combines elements of IDM, hip-hop, electro, jazz, rock, pop, and classical music into collage-like electronic songs that groove with ease, but provide a challenge for listeners who dig deeper.
Chicago producer Dean Dunakin performed on trumpet from an early age, rooted in classical, jazz, and the local blues. But his young fascination with the scratchy bleeps of the Apple IIe — and deep affinity with computers through a degree in digital painting — led to a natural adoption of computer as his main instrument. He is able to use his classical and jazz training to bring an air of sophistication and a new palette of sounds to the electronic music genre.
Bounte’s well-received debut album, One, was built of subtle layers, thick basslines, airy vocals, complex beats, and sophisticated synths. Live/DJ sets, and an internet distribution through Positron Records placed Bounte as a welcome addition to the local music scene, and popular with a world-wide audience. Following up with the aggressively beat-specific but delicately diverse EP Maximal, Bounte remains unrooted in any particular genre or time. Bounte is currently wrapping up his sophomore album, Two, which promises to bring together all his styles from IDM to jazz, skills from turntableism to trumpeting, and guest artists met throughout his experiences.

I've been loving this project since I first heard "Going Nowhere" on Komposi003. As I sit here and listen to One yet again, I'm really itching for that new EP now.
