Pulse Mandala and Garnet Dupuis
Unite to Redefine Music
Electronic ambient artist Pulse Mandala returns to the source, to the fabric of space and time itself connecting to the fundamental essence of life: Vibration. The compositions take inspiration from organic patterns that are abundant in nature, from the fascinating microscopic world up to the vast and stellar universe. There’s something out there that somehow feels right and makes us feel connected to the world we live in. When this divine magic is applied to electronic music, there’s an instant connection to a deeper level of consciousness.
Bridging Artistry and Technology
Being an established and well respected music tech and touring veteran, Wim Daans has a reputation for blurring the lines between artistry, production and technology. He worked as a sound designer, studio producer, backline technician, playback engineer, video editor and more recently as stage/production manager and always succeeds to inspire and motivate his team to bring out the best from everybody involved.
I see myself as a technical-artistic explorer, a seeker, and a human being in progress. I take pride in executing my job with great responsibility, initiative and enthusiasm, and the never-ending challenge that fast evolving technology offers me, allows me to push boundaries, think outside of the box and come up with innovative solutions. Basically I like to work with creative, friendly, down-to-earth people on exciting new projects to make interesting things happen.
Wim Daans (Pulse Mandala)
Electronic artist Wim Daans is the driving force behind Pulse Mandala. He started out in the dark eighties with Belgian new wave band The Arch as keyboard player and composer. In the nineties he joined the ranks of bands like Lords of Acid, Poesie Noire, Darling Nikkie, Luc van Acker and Praga Khan, touring the world playing synths in the underground scene. In between tours he also worked on his own solo project Karma de la Luna that became an established name in the Ambient scene and released the cult classic Travel Without Moving.

(Pulse Mandala)
Wim’s passionate love and extensive use of music technology has always been his driving motor. He likes to take care of all things MIDI, MADI, virtual instruments, digital audio, timecode, clicktracks and other electronic wizardry happening on modern live productions. He’s basically acting as a missing link between audio, light, video and the artists, making for a smooth production experience.
His vast experience in the music industry really shows when running productions where he manages to inspire and motivate his team to bring out the best from everybody involved. As a sound designer and electronic artist, Wim is obsessed with synthesizers, both hardware and software. He owns an extensive Eurorack modular system, which he uses for classic analogue tracking and creating advanced, experimental, evolving soundscapes.
