A.k.a. Wesley Davis

bios+a+ic (wesley davis) is a producer, engineer, performer, sound artist, and dj, who soundtracks the modern world via construction and deconstruction of multi-layered digital and analog sonic textures. He has recorded and produced over 20 full-length albums for symbolic insight, an experimental electronic music company he founded in 1998, which includes a studio, a label, and event productions. ********************** Influential styles: IDM, industrial, drone, ambient, experimental, glitch, noise, avant guarde, EBM, space rock, world beat, electronica, acid jazz bios+a+ic's sound sources primarily focus on multi-processed trumpet, vocals, synthesizer, sample loops, digital beats, and field recordings, but also include, chAoss pad, analog delay, thumb piano, guitar, accordian, bells, walkie-talkies, shakers, rain stick, finger cymbals, hand drums, metal percussion, toy piano, and anything around that makes sound. His distinct style has been compared to Rampoon, Jon Hassell, Nine Inch Nails, Aube, Brian Eno, Tribes of Neurot, and Scanner. "The music cannot be separated from the environment, therefore I embrace both the organic elements of sound, and the digital counterparts. For the music to be alive, it cannot be contained within preconceived ideas like notation, time, or genre." ~ bios+a+ic, 2001
