Davidian's Mini-Bio

      Davidian is a woodwind instrumentalist, writer arranger and cd producer, with more than 30 years of musical experience. In 2006 he produced L'Afroditez's 4 track EP. Together with Melonai Brisdon he has been writing and producing L'Afroditez's exciting mix of Franco Canadian song with poly-rhthmic Afro-Cuban dance beats. Davidian is available for recording Flute, Alto flute, Tenor, Soprano Saxophone, various clarinets and other winds. In his own and associated studios, he can provide cross internet tracking to other artists anywhere remotley. DC Music Studios can write and record music to suit, for film, advertising and multimedia. DC Music Studios can record a range of woodwinds and brass, unique synthesiser programming, and live tracked multi-percussion. We are in closs association with Magic Lamp Studios and Jose Sanchez to provide the best production, performance, and soundesign in Logic Pro audio, ProTools and Cubase formats.

      "First impressed by the energy of old style rock and roll saxophonists and improvisations, I later developed a taste for Miles Davis's dark funk and the energy of 60's era free improvisations. Added to that is a knack for rhythm, funk, and the music of Africa and Cuba. I enjoy creating intense sound, from low flute whispers to roaring blues sax blasts. Now with live computer modulation, my sounds are heard at Hip Hop, Goa, and 'cross over' World Music dance parties. My career highlight has been working with 'The Puentes Brothers' and Jose Sanchez, and other great Cuban Musicians. I wrote and wailed with 'Mortal Engine', a driving, all originals Intensity Music band. I have played Funk and Acid Jazz with Mo Funk Collective and Soul Crib, Salsa Son and Merengue with Marlin Ramazinni, Havana Jam, Orkestra La Clave y Tropicana , Rave and dance parties with Scott Bishop ( now with Blue Man Group) and Myles Bigelow, Rock and Roll sax with the Fluff Girl burlesque shows and occasionally Swank, Jazz for many years with many groups. I have recorded with acclaim on cds by 'The New Pornographers', veejay Su Kin Lee, and on Alpha Yaya Dialo's Juno winning album. Currently I am working with Melonai Brisdon on the L'Afroditez live show and have produced the L'Afroditez CD. I improvise and write and record constantly, and am always looking for projects to add intensity to."

      In 1983 Davidian won the Pacific Northwest Music Festival's 'Knights of Columbus Award' for best overall festival perfomances. The scholarship was used to attend masterclasses with Jeannie Baxstresser, Julius Baker and Donald Peck. Since then he has studied with Dave Holland, Roscoe Mitchel, Steve Colemann, Kevin Eubanks and others at The Banff Centre as well as with Jack Stafford, Dave Branter Jane Martin and  many others in Vancouver B.C..
