for close to a decade, swedish duo rickard berglöf and robert elster (better known to the world as vibrasphere) have been pumping out tracks from their cloud 99 studios. with over a 100 released productions to their name and gigs in all parts of the globe, they are without a doubt one of the most sought-after and respected trance acts in the world today. early releases echo (2001) on spiral trax and lime structure (2003) on digital structures established them as truly leading figures of the progressive trance scene, earning them a place in the history of this progressive sound. their 3rd album, archipelago (also on digital structures) was regarded as one of the seminal releases of 2006 and after their short break in 2005, firmly signally vibrasphere were back on the scene. in late 2006, the single floating free was picked up by superstar djs markus shulz and armin van buuren for their radio shows, resulting in a string of licenses including gatecrasher live on ministry of sound and armada trance vol. 1. with strong support from djs paul van dyk, hernan cattaneo, paul oakenfold, christopher lawrence, remy, menno de jong, kenneth thomas and john 00 fleming has helped with making a successful transition to a wider audience and a whole new generation of vibrasphere fans.
riding on the back of their successful 2006 release archipelago (and its subsequent remix cd), vibrasphere made a strong showing again in 07 with their 4th full length studio album, exploring the tributaries this time on tribal vision records. showcasing a slightly different side of the duo s productions, exploring the tributaries is a bit more experimental in nature, incorporating sounds from a wide range of styles including club influenced progressive, electro-minimal and downbeat-chill. rickard and robert have put to good use their years of studio experience in creating a sound that will be both timeless and contemporary - a true look into the musical minds of some of progressive music's pioneering acts. |
