Composer, writer and DJ 
Dany Janvier is a multidisciplinary artist who  works with both image 
and sound. Specializing in chill-out electronic  music, electronica, 
IDM, ambient, and psytrance, he’s been part of the  Canadian 
electro-underground scene since 1998.
 Uncompromising when it comes 
to music, Dany Janvier creates his tracks  as if they were a collage, 
using eclectic elements from all kinds of  sources. Film and other sound
 clips, groovy ambient trance, traditional  and electro-acoustic music, 
world beat, baroque, and classical merge as  Dany Janvier reunites art, 
philosophy, fantasy, and spirituality. His  unique style provides him 
with infinite possibilities and revolutionizes  conventions.
 Dany 
Janvier creates tracks like works of art in which unpredictable  
melodies and structures follow complex composition systems. The listener
  travels through musical landscapes that borrow from electro ambient,  
down tempo, acid’s hallucinatory pulsations, and trance’s percussive  
energy. Since 2005, Dany Janvier has produced nine original albums and 
one Ep  (in 2014) as part of his Biobazar project. In 2009, his “Festin 
NU”  album was nominated in the electronic-music album of the year 
category  by ADISQ. His most recent album, “Vitaphone” (2014) was 
nominated in the  electronic-music album of the year category by ADISQ. 
Dany Janvier is  now producing a tenth original album, which he expects 
will be ready by  the end of June 2015. He’d love to present this album 
all over the  world.
 Biobazar has offered hundreds of live performances and DJ sets as  part
 of various shows and several Canadian electronic-music festivals –  
including Tech Safari’s famous Eclipse Festival – even performing twice 
 in Europe, including at the Wax Club in 2008 as part of Brussels’ 
summer  festival.

 
With Biobazar, Dany Janvier can offer a high quality show with live  
video feed, both on his own (as a DJ) and with musicians. Biobazar’s  
music has been used in a few short films and by a circus company in its 
 art happenings. Being baroque, fantastical and eclectic, Biobazar’s  
music naturally complements art—whether it accompanies the movements of 
 dancers or inspires the creation work of visual artists.
 With 
Biobazar’s music, Dany Janvier is not trying to be the flavour of  the 
month: he wants his universe to reach those who enjoy 1970s  psychedelic
 space rock and progressive music as well as novice listeners  who enjoy
 electronic music but seek deeper sounds, different from  common 
electronica.
 Dany 
Janvier doesn’t believe in premade answers and he refuses the  style 
dogma that divide everything into simplistic categories. In his  
reality, he trusts questions and experimentations more than preconceived
  answers.
 Currently working as an art and newspaper photographer, a
 radio host and  producer, a video director, cameraman and editor, he 
also dabbled in  painting in the 1990s. He enjoys taking part in every 
aspect of  creation/production to share his vision of daily beauty and 
simplicity  in this world.
