Welcome. Great to have you here.
I would be very interested in a Manafon Musicians/Erstwhile thread. I don't know much about most of these musicians, I've been listening to something on the net, and in the end I'm diffident and attracted at the same time. Certainly a work like Manafon promises to be will be very helpful in making this kind of music more familiar to 'normal' listeners like myself (for example: I started listening to Fennesz because David Sylvian worked with him on Venice; I didn't like it much at first except for 'Transit', but, listening to it again and again it got better and better, and now I've got almost all of his solo CDs and I love them).
So, why not begin with a brief introduction of them all. I'm sure the questions will flow.

Seems sensible enough to me.
