Band Members: Vediovis is a musical concept made by the French artist Stéphane Lambert. After a strong musical training in Violin, Guitar and music theory, he was part of numerous French bands in Heavy Metal or Pop area for 1985 to 1998. Usually guitarist, he was sometime playing the bass or the drums as well. The decision to electronic came in 1998 to explore new ways and to create new things, half seriously and half in the crazy nuts way. Fast Tracker 2 was a lovely tool at this stage, with the possibility to make tracks with sometime more than 56 instruments at the same time. This auto production was published in some national computers magazines (PC TEAM, PC FUN, ...), with radio diffusions and some positive TV critics.
Vediovis Part 2 (4 tracks)
.
Maxi CD Plastic (5 tracks)
Unreleased (6 tracks)
Influences: The major influences were demomakers musicians, like Tryton, Maf, and the fabulous song "Access Denied". All the modules has been made with Fast Tracker 2 , a tool coming from the Amiga, when CDs were not existing and when musicians had to work with very small space and memory. Modules are made with the XM format, all instruments embedded in the track so the music will sound the same in every computer. It was also the way the Video Game industry made music when they had only floppies to distribute their games. It was a nice time when creativity was at his maximum and when you could be sure all tunes in a track were well thought and voluntarily executed.
