MARTIN NONSTATIC | Unlocked EP

Martin Nonstatic's Unlocked EP reveals new undulations in the composer's soundscapes; vagabonding about a circuitry of dub basslines, evanescent pads and downtempo grooves. Soundtrack to a far distance beam up, gliding through the vast echoes of space emptiness, this digital release features a cinematic drum'n'bass remix by AES Dana and introduces the upcoming LP "Pulsatille".

DJ V++ — Microcosmos Theory (Second Mix for radiOzora)

Ultimae announces the reedition and remaster of Leylines, the fourth Ambient Downtempo album by French composer and sound designer Vincent Villuis, aka AES Dana.

Sculpted from field recordings, analog synthesis, and digitally processed textures, Leylines is a deeply immersive and granular journey. This reedited and remastered edition brings greater spatial clarity and depth, revealing new layers of nuance and sonic interplay.

Inspired by the concept of invisible energy paths believed to link sacred and geomagnetic sites, the album explores the subtle connections between musical genres, emotional states, and the living world.

Originally released in 2009, Leylines quickly became a pivotal work in Villuis’s career. What few people knew at the time is that the album was composed in its entirety twice: after a catastrophic disk crash destroyed the original version, Villuis entered a period of deep introspection before starting over. This shock led not only to emotional reckoning but also to a complete reinvention of his creative process.

Leylines became the foundation for a new compositional language — one built on a fresh sonic palette, renewed patterns, and a more sculptural approach to sound. The final result was more distilled, more intentional, and marked a turning point in his musical trajectory. Upon release, the album reached #1 on the iTunes Electronic Music chart, establishing itself as a landmark within the genre.

The Unexpected Hours EP associates the works of AES Dana (Vincent Villuis) and MIKTEK (Mihalis Aikaterinis), the third chapter in a series of three. 

Dedicated to these time-lapse moments, when the Big Clock suddenly seems to stop, when we are entirely free of any burden, enjoying only the current flow and the simple pleasure, in a timeless and undefined cocoon. 

These 4 new & closing tracks continue to paint sturdy contrasts, conflicting and paradoxical emotions through grainy and liquid Drum works, magnetic soundscapes, blurry interferences and rushed audio switches. Welcome to the final intersections.

Ultimae proudly presents the second edition of AES Dana’s highly acclaimed POLLEN album printed on CD, 2xLP and all digital formats.
Fully remastered, this vibrant and powerful opus presents 10 tracks fusing IDM/Downtempo, Deep Tech and ProgressiveTrance. 
A cinematic album which offers new perceptions of the work of the composer who weaved symphonic pads into deep bass grooves and haunting themes while bringing out a certain melancholia brushed by stratified rhythms.
Passionate about the concept of pollination and how it transposes with music, sounds, technology and humanity, Vincent Villuis recorded and gathered moments of his life as he walked through cities, fields, seaside and airports. Back in the studio, he introduced these field recordings in his electronic compositions to yield tracks that are eclectic yet retain a common essence. In this configuration, man and machine are both pollinators and pollenizers; music is the pollen.

An electrifying stratosphere of vibrant realms and enchanting tonalities evolves with every breath of Martin Nonstatic’s hand-crafted synthscapes and mind-massaging oscillations, “Ligand” is an ambient downpour of dramatic euphoria.
Dark, yet soulful minimalism is engraved within the atmospheric frequencies that paint its melancholy walls, a downtempo outcry of distant, mechanical pads and dystopian melodies crawling against an auditory horizon.

Outermost Structure

Ultimae proudly presents "Hereafter", a collection of past and present works by Mihalis Aikaterinis aka MIKTEK to which the Greek composer desired to give a second breath and offer a new dive into his deep musical world. All tracks were carefully chosen, revisited, reedited, recorded live, remastered and assembled with two unreleased ones to create a smooth melancholic journey.

Washed out blissful pads and slow idm rhythms are to be expected as the foundation of this release. From the warm ambient vibe of Dawsonia to the dubbed out landscapes of Omniprescence and the glitchy rhythms of Atmosphere of Neglect, Mihalis cruises through multiple electronic territories while keeping a coherent sound along the way. 

Sometimes reassuring, sometimes dark, but always captivating, these pieces feel like a never ending ascent to the lights above.
During the troubled times we're experimenting, "Hereafter" resonates with a touching singularity. While the title might evoke dismal images, what we hear is an invitation to look farther than anything else, farther than our present times, to journey to clearer skies and quieter waters.

MIKTEK | Omnipresence

Derived from the Latin “Ultimae Terrae,” meaning “the furthest places,” the name Ultimae reflects a profound theme of exploration. This concept is at the heart of Ultimae Records, an ambient music record label and publisher dedicated to transporting listeners to the outer edges of experience through sound and offering a space for introspection and discovery within the vastness of the mind and beyond.

In 1999, Vincent Villuis and Sandrine Gryson, also known as AES Dana and Mahiane, united over a shared passion for the immersive world of electronic music. This collaboration led to the birth of the label. Initially envisioned as a musical portal, Ultimae’s mission was to explore and disseminate the diverse expressions of Ambient music far and wide through the production of records and the establishment of an online shop.

Over the years, Ultimae has expanded beyond its original scope, evolving into a multifaceted company with sound design, post-production, and mastering studios based in Lyon, France, along with professional services in publishing, music licensing, and synchronization.
