There are several artists using the name DODO.

1. DODO (real name Dodo Kitching) is a multi instrumental composer and artist from London. A female songwriter and theramin player who is best known for her unique and quirky style of downtempo ‘wonky’ electronica.

Dodo learnt classical piano as a child before moving on to play bass in teenage punk bands. Abandoning her art school training after an introduction to Acid House, she began playing keyboards and percussion with various well-known bands.



She soon started mixing up her own concoction of sci-fi b-movie cocktail lounge and cosmic space waltz. Meetings with London’s Digidub resulted in the recordings of the 12inch EP “Cleopatra’s Needle” which was well enough received to get her signed to Berlin’s cult label Crippled Dick Hot Wax for her debut album The Android’s Dream.

Fast forward several years and Dodo’s song writing has mellowed and matured. Into the original mix have been added disembodied voices and robot characters. Cult UK label Freshly Squeezed Music is now releasing new material and a “best of” collection is expected…
