About the Artist
If the term ''renaissance man'' can be applied to any contemporary person, it might be attached to Ghislain Caya, born in Montreal in 1966.
The Anyma view of the world is made up of original compositions, color imagery and forays into the seemingly unlimited world of electronic and synthesized music. With a complex yet satisfying mix of computer software, synthesizers, guitars, Latin and African percussion, Ghislain presents an inner spirituality wrapped in a soft cloak of hope.
Anyma has been compared to Enigma, Delerium, Enya and Dead Can Dance.
He builds on his strength as an arranger and composer, with particular emphasis on getting the correct feel for each composition.
Ghislain says he has found his style and identity and nothing will keep him from success. Perhaps the only suggestion a listener can offer to the uninitiated is this: Close your eyes. The breath of life will do the rest.
Technical Requirements:
Emax, Korg Wavestation A/D, Korg P-61, Fender guitar, African and Latin percussions, lots of effects and virtual synths.
