AES DANA - biography
AES DANA aka Vincent Villuis, composer and sound designer, Dj and co-owner of Ultimae records. Electronic activist since teenagehood, he was also one of the founding members of ASURA. Bass player and singer in several coldwave and industrial bands, he then moved on to composing with machines.
Specialised in sampling and layering of accoustic sounds digitally transmuted, Vincent Villuis creates a music which offers multiple listening possibilities.
AES DANA brings a fusion between the British Progressive feel and the traditional American Space Music; with sounds anchored in the psychedelic realm freely flowing into a morning downtempo trance, tribal or smashed rhythms.
So far he has produced 3 solo albums, participated to about 3 dozen compilations and collaborated on an album with Swedish artist Magnus Birgersson under the name H.UV.A.NETWORK ( a second one is in the works).
Vincent Villuis currently works the soundtrack of Science Fiction movie "The Passport" (Amund Lie) which should come out late 2007 and the composition of his album [ Leylines ].
As the conceptor of the Fahrenheit Project compilation, he is working on the last chapter of the series prior to re-releasing the whole collection as a deluxe edition.
