A collective and a label, Montreal's AMBIANCES MAGNETIQUES, has been introducing us, for the last 25 years, to the most exciting adventures of the francophone canadian "avant" scene.
Initially founded just as a cooperative between the avant-gard artists & improvisors JEAN DEROME, RENE LUSSIER, JOANE HETU & friends.
First releases, RENE LUSSIER's debut work "Fin Du Travaill" (1983) and albums from ANDRE DUCHESNE, WONDEUR BRASS, LES POULES, LES GRANULES... attract a small interest, mostly among fans of RecRec sound, avant-prog and the likes.
In 1991 though, when JOANE HETU establishes the DAME distribution company, AMBIANCES MAGNETIQUES, taking the shape of a more regular label, extends its activities, adds its catalog many new artists... and gradually starts earning wider critical respect and international acknowledgement...
