Doof (musician)
Nicholas Barber( born 31 August 1968), better known by the stage name Doof, is best known as a London- based psychedelic trance musician.
Doof's first official release was in 1993 with NovaMute, the dance label run by Mute Records, a three- track EP titled" Disposable Hymns to the Infinite".
It was through Novamute label- mates Juno Reactor and Ben Watkins that Doof was first introduced to producer Youth( of Killing Joke/ Brilliant), Simon Posford, also known as Hallucinogen, and the Dragonfly Records label.
Doof went on to release" Double Dragons" as a 12" with Dragonfly in 1994, and to produce a series of tracks in partnership with Simon Posford, including" Let's Turn OnBorn Again" and" Angelic Particles".
It was through his friendship with Simon Posford that Doof was introduced to Raja Ram( Shpongle/ The Infinity Project/ Quintessence) who later that year would start the highly influential trance label T.I.P Records.
Doof's" Let's Turn On"( co- produced with Simon Posford) became the second ever T.I.P 12" release.
This was followed in 1995 by another 12" for T.I.P( Angelina/ Weird Karma), the" Born Again" EP on Matsuri and another 12" for Dragonfly(" Youth of the Galaxy").
1995 also saw numerous Doof remixes, including tracks by Hallucinogen and The Infinity Project.
In 1996, the first Doof album" Let's Turn On" was released on T.I.P.
Records, and went on to become one of the defining albums of the early psy-trance sound.
It was subsequently re-released in 2000 by Twisted Records, who also released the second Doof album" It's About Time" the same year.
During this time Doof travelled extensively performing live sets all over the globe including numerous appearances across Europe, in the U.S, South America and Japan.
In 2001, he teamed up with friends Celli Firmi( Earthling/ Soundaholix) and Mexican DJ and promoter Xavier Fux( Zulu Lounge) to collaborate on the psy-house project Vatos Locos.
The first Vatos Locos album(" Welcome to the Barrio") was released later that year by Sony Music.
The second album," Attack and Release", went out in 2004 with Dragonfly Records.
It was around this time that Doof began to grow disillusioned with the commercial and musical direction that the psy-trance scene was taking, and started to explore other avenues of musical expression.
He is also one half of downtempo electronica project Third Ear Audio with Celli Firmi, and as a singer/ songwriter is recording acoustic songs as Nick Barber.
In 2008, he released an acoustic album called" Clear Blue Sky" under his own name.
This was followed by a second album of songs called" Seeds".
In April 2015," Let's Turn On" was re-released by DAT Records in a remastered and expanded double CD version, featuring vintage alternate mixes of all the original tracks.
One reviewer nominated it" the greatest Goa trance album of all time".
In early 2015, he started work as composer for the soundtrack of Bruce Parry's forthcoming documentary' Quest'.
The film was eventually released under the title" Tawai, A Voice from the Forest" in September 2017.
The original soundtrack album with music by Barber was also released at the same time.

Let's Turn Back the Years
"Let's Turn Back the Years" is a song written and originally recorded by Hank Williams for MGM Records.
Hank Williams
Hiram "Hank" Williams (September 17, 1923 – January 1, 1953) was an American singer-songwriter and musician.
Regarded as one of the most significant and influential American singers and songwriters of the 20th century, Williams recorded 35 singles (five released posthumously) that reached the Top 10 of the "Billboard" Country & Western Best Sellers chart, including 11 that ranked number one (three posthumously).
Born in Mount Olive, Butler County, Alabama, Williams relocated to Georgiana with his family, where he met Rufus Payne, an African American blues musician, who gave him guitar lessons in exchange for meals or money.
Payne had a major influence on Williams' later musical style, along with Roy Acuff and Ernest Tubb.
Williams would later relocate to Montgomery, where he began his music career in 1937, when producers at radio station WSFA hired him to perform and host a 15-minute program.
He formed the Drifting Cowboys backup band, which was managed by his mother, and dropped out of school to devote his time to his career.
When several of his band members were conscripted into military service during World War II, Williams had trouble with their replacements, and WSFA terminated his contract because of his alcohol abuse.
Williams eventually married Audrey Sheppard, who was his manager for nearly a decade.
After recording "Never Again" and "Honky Tonkin'" with Sterling Records, he signed a contract with MGM Records.
In 1947, he released "Move It on Over", which became a hit, and also joined the "Louisiana Hayride" radio program.
One year later, he released a cover of "Lovesick Blues" recorded at Herzog Studio in Cincinnati, which carried him into the mainstream of music.
After an initial rejection, Williams joined the Grand Ole Opry.
He was unable to read or notate music to any significant degree.
Among the hits he wrote were "Your Cheatin' HeartHey, Good Lookin'", and "I'm So Lonesome
I Could Cry".
Years of back pain, alcoholism and prescription drug abuse severely compromised his health.
In 1952 he divorced Sheppard and was dismissed by the Grand Ole Opry because of his unreliability and alcohol abuse.
On New Year's Day 1953, he died suddenly while traveling to a concert in Canton, Ohio, at the age of 29.
Despite his short life, Williams is one of the most celebrated and influential popular musicians of the 20th century, especially in regard to country music.
Many artists covered songs Williams wrote and recorded.
He influenced Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bob Dylan, George Jones, Charley Pride, and The Rolling Stones, among others.
Williams was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame (1961), the Songwriters Hall of Fame (1970), and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1987).
The Pulitzer Prize jury in 2010 awarded him a posthumous special citation "for his craftsmanship as a songwriter who expressed universal feelings with poignant simplicity and played a pivotal role in transforming country music into a major musical and cultural force in American life."
Fire On High
"Fire on High" is the opening instrumental track from the 1975 Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) album "Face the Music".
The song was the UK B-side to the band's worldwide hit single "Livin' Thing", issued in blue vinyl.
It was also later included — in an edited form minus the backwards vocals — as the flip side of the United States hit single "Sweet Talkin' Woman" in 1978.
The album version contains an opening with a backwards message.
When the song is played in reverse, the message, in a masked heavy voice (performed by ELO drummer, Bev Bevan), can be heard stating, "The music is reversible but time is not.
Turn back.
Turn back.
Turn back.
Turn back." — ostensibly Jeff Lynne's shot at backmasking hysteria, after satanic allegations were made against their song "Eldorado" by Fundamentalist Christianity members.
Snippets of "Messiah" by Handel can be heard during the album opening as well.
"Fire on High" was used as the opening theme for the "CBS Sports Spectacular" TV show in the mid-1970s.
Currently, it is the opening and closing theme to "The Diner with Lou Simon," a weekly music-related talk show on SiriusXM Satellite Radio.
In 2000, The New Jersey Devils used the song, accompanied by visuals, in the opening ceremony for all their home games.
Much of the song was also played prior to every Atlanta Thrashers home game.
"Fire on High" is played inside the "Astrosphere" at Funtown Splashtown USA in Saco, ME.
The ride is a Scrambler ride inside of a large dome.
Despite being almost entirely instrumental, the song's title can be faintly heard near the end of the track by the chanting chorus.
