(1996 – present)
There is more than one band with this name:
#1) Since 1996, the project Asura has polished a personal electronic universe sound, between trance psychedelic, ambient and world music. Made by many influences, their music does not remain about it less one personal and considered creation, centered on the perpetual search of infinite spaces and multiple origins. Monotonous melancholic lyrics, symphonic waves, fast and slow rythms, heavy or throbbing, liturgical songs, Asura introduces a certain solemn vision of the world. Built around electronic machines and acoustic instruments, their music is a curiosity. Recognized everywhere, though little known in France, their songs
Code Eternity and Lost Eden however had many dance at the time of large trance raves all over the world. Vincent Villuis left the band to concentrate on his new project, Aes Dana, in 2001, and was replaced by Alex Ackerman.
The second album, Lost Eden, was released in 2003.
Since July 2005, after the departure of Christopher Maze and Alex Ackerman, Asura became a solo project, composed by Charles Farewell, co-founder of the project.
The third and newest album, LIFE², has been available on Earth since July the 7th 2007, on Ultimae Records.

This is my first listening of Asura. I enjoy thier music a lot. But, like a lot of other groups, the thump of the 'drum' usually drowns out the rest of the song. I enjoy the drum, gives me a good beat to work with. I just wish that it wouldn't over power the song(s) they create

whatever it was and to be completely fair, there's pretty much no sense to talk about it right now, considering merely that Asura albums see the light roughly every three (last time - four) years - 2000, 2003, 2007. Hence, more definitely looks like "see you in 2010". ;) And yes, last EP was pretty refreshing.

The new Asura's EP, «Afterain», is beautiful. I think, it will be a very interesting album with elements of a new style.

I hope the next album will be similar to Code Eternity. Very deep and intelligent music. So far the dominating album on Ultimae, in my opinion.

Good measured rhythmic music, a little reminds somehow "U96", "Enigma". (Sorry for my English)

oh, it was a kind message for me ;) No problem with the other Asura. i think that every people here know that the tracks on last fm are not coming from a demo cd ;) Thank you for translation Trancing.

in other words, he's talking about reasonability of removal of second Asura mentioned in the bio, which obviously appears to be infinitely pale in comparison to your project, hence not deserving any referrences on that background.
-
trancing wrote:
well, literally: Remove that biography... Yeah, right! Why wouldn't we dedicate this page to some uncertain group which existed unknown when and released just a couple of uncertain demos with satanic inclination, rather than to one of the best psyambient-projects with a world name?

the translation in english, Psy-eternity?
