AUN is Martin Dumais one of the figureheads of the electronic scene montrealaise since its genesis. Recording and playing live since the mid 80's. Half of award winning eclectic outfit LES JARDINIERS (2 adisqs Quebec grammys) with JF Charette (New Electric Dog). He largely contributed to the installation of the electronic music in Montreal and its diffusion internationally, while also working as a music producer for television and art expos. By 1992 he was commissionned by the Montreal St-Joseph Oratory to rework the music for their yearly easter presentation of 'The Way of The Cross'. His Hautec label produced good number of the first works of some of the leaders of the current local scene: Akufen (with whome he recorded the 1996 album Juicebox), Deadbeat, Champion... An encyclopedic DJ with several residencies since 92 (Laika, Bily Kun…) including a 4 year stint at the mythical Foufounes Électriques. He also performed full machine and dj sets at festivals like Sonar, Mutek and internationally : UK, France, Argentina, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany. AUN is a return to his first love of deep melodic lush drones and sometimes harsh angular electro-ambient textures produced with digital, analogical hardware and guitars. This rich and provocative music will be performed live and out on cd form on ORAL records march 15th 2007
