Biography
Minuit De Lacroix has been active since 1994 in the exploration of sound. Recently one of his field recordings was transmitted on FM through radio receptors distributed in the Center of Contemporary Culture of Barcelona (CCCB) as part of Zeppelin: the 8th Festival of Sonic Projects About Control. Addicted to recording and to travelling, between his various projects, he has submitted pieces for many compilations ranging in styles and has worked on remixes for other musicians such as AntiQuark, Ford Proco, Murcof, Mexican Jumping Frijoles, among many more. Even though he is better known as one of the founding members of Eklegein Recordings and for his experimental ambient works, his current focus is live electronic groove music.
Minuit is not a band but a man named Minuit De Lacroix.
He started to create music in 1994 with a microphone, a small amp, tape delay FX, an Akai AX-80 and a Juno 106.
The word 'Minuit' is actually french and translates into Midnight.
His music has a mysterious, nocturnal sound to it that most people like to some extent.
His various projects vary in style from electronic dance to abstract noise.
Recent releases include:
* Luto Ibérico (a collection of field recordings from Catalunya, Euzkadi & Spain.)
* The Inexorable Power Of Grief And Sophistication
* Sustainable Landscape Modeling Within The Dream Realm
Other works as Minuit include soundtracks for theater, dance troupes and independent short films as well as live backdrops for photography & art exhibitions, spoken word performances & DJ sets.
