Bio 2022

Tobias Edelberg, Musician, Producer Artist. Born 1973 In the city that first pioneered 
electronic music Dusseldorf on the majestic river Rein. Germany, in the early seventies was a hotbed of a avanguard student and sub culture scenes. Dusseldorf gave the world Kraftwerk plus, DJ Satish, Also known as Cafe Amsterdam or D-Ryth or Tattva, Jai Ganesh and KAB Systems,
This by far doesn’t cover the many other side projects over the years. 

When he turned 7 he moved to Portland Oregon. America. Where a large Latino and African American community thrived. So here he caught his first taste of Soul Music. Particularly the trumpet horn, which he picked up in those years and continued to play almost every day with a brazilian big band until the age of 13.
At the same time he spent time in a local audio department, and often DJ ´ed with Audio Cassette tapes for the Local Kids Disco.


 It was then he moved back to Dusseldorf. Here the dread of school did nothing for him, he sought out a old friend who was working in a local Disco called the “Bhaggy”. Towards this he gravitated every day after school. His friend was also only 14. So at first they would practise further the arts of DJ’íng in the day time while earning money. In the late 90´s there was three turntables and a mike! Records became they way of expressing himself since there was no more place for a loud horn in the City. Tobias and his friend became a team of sorts, Tapesh the young friend would DJ and Tobias would rap. At the time “Public Enemy” was coming from across the big pond. 
By the time we was 15 he had already sang with Boy Goerge (who was big deal in the 80´s)
Played in three Discos in Koln and Dusseldorf and had his very first taste of a recording studio.

The start of the 90´s was marked by the beginning of new sounds House from Chicago and Techno from the Rein-land and the Benelux. Tobias went to Goa, India, Thailand and Australia. On these tours he began to DJ or perform wherever he went and to cut this a lot shorter we list a few highlights. Also remember sets on the 1990’s were often more than 8 hours.

Production first started around 2000 In Ibiza where he produced his first Track called
“Welcome to Bombay” from then on he has created a vast treasure chest of chill out, trance music, house  underground and experimental. Most of this was going out over “Space Radio” where about 7 Albums in total plus about 8 singles were released over 10 years. It wasn’t until 2022 when he started to produce under his own name that a wider audience was found. At the grass roots level. His sounds have changed to a more upbeat tribal ecstatic dance situation inspired by the Club Lite in Amsterdam, the drum circle in Miami and Hawaii.
A new bread of producers from South America and Africa are coming through now in 2022,
Tobias Edelberg is cutting that edge between dance electro and tribal. 

Defining moments that made my sound: Massive Attack, Prince, RUNDNC, KLF. Snap! And of course Shpoongle, Raja, and TIP Records. Antaro and Spiritzone.

Gear: Djembe, Miditech Keyboard, Adam Studio Monitors, Accsess Snow Synth, Two Ancient Macs,
 1x T-Mix and two DR113 Behringers.

Duchamp's grandnephew,indisputable spellbinder of Dadaism and militant spartacist resistance's son ,comes in contact with Russian constructivism sharing futurist theories of Russolo's engines of noises and co,going through NY School Fluxus performances and sperimental Happening.He passes through a revolutionary '68 coming in contact with new musical trends and underground cultures that are going to form projecting in the'80,period in which who's rebel fight against all that is pop,against Yuppies and "Paninaro"style,living the uneasiness of a Bauhaus post punk and post human age.All while approaches the end of a millennium in which the man feels the threat of new technological sciences and genetic biotecnologies,we compare us with mental trips such as Creamaster and continuous Streetfighter matches with Supernintendo.Archived the Millennium bug phobia,he discovers Rave subculture starting from the early '90 and follows who travel over 200 bpm from the speedcore to the frenchcore.In the 2000 starts up the figure of Mc Fuck,that from 2001 to 2007 represents Padua's raveplanet radio fm within dj sky and becomes the mc of all Raveplanet and Underconstruction(italian hardcore movement) parties.He co-operates in Switzerland with Hardcore Ticino group and after years of many battles,degeneration,warriors pyramids,he decides to leave the scene choosing the way of spiritual retreat and tibetan mantra meditation.Going through tribal cultures and multiethnic sonority,roots and reggae,he finds out the Dub and therefore the Dubstep ,a genre continually in evolution in able to cooperate with many electronic sounds integrated into the meditative rhythm of dub and characterized by bass more overweight full of cholesterol! Landed with bullying to contemporary bassline world in which directly from the Balcans is distinguishing a surge of violence spreaded by rolling blades and biomechanical chainsaws.Our neurological peripherals collide against a strong sound like an hammer and sharp like a sickle blade.The new neural dance starts from an amortized,slow,reflective,mental and ambient dubstep accompanied by electronic,distorted and brutal wobbles up to an heavy and illogical dnb,simulacrum of a core'n'bass crossed to crossbreed alterneted by neurofunk e technoid rhythms....this is element selecta.From the beginning of 2011 he collaborates inna bassline style with PIGRECO project,a way to concept music that allows the cohesion of all the individual and unsaid realities because they're unsuitable and not expected from the market rules.Pigreco wants to promote between the young people of humid Nord-est,the independent production of music and all the arts belonging to it.When it's arrived the hot 2012 summer he became the official dj of concerts and bothering events in support of BIBA Records Fucking Industries Distribution...MORE FAT BASS IS COMING SOON!!!

In 1994, Raja Ram formed TIP Records, one of the original Goa-Trance / Psy-Trance labels based in the UK.  He had already been releasing music with his band The Infinity Project (T.I.P.) since the late 80's and after putting on, now legendary, TIP parties around this time, the idea to start a record label was conceived.

30 years on, TIP has gone from strength to strength with 100's of cutting-edge electronic music releases to date including highly respected classic dance music compilations right through to experimental downtempo and ambient music to a world wide (perhaps even inter-galactic)loyal following.

As ambassadors of the label, Raja Ram and DJ Lucas O'Brien (SuperModule) presented their label showcase touring the globe for over 20 years bringing the TIP sound to a wider audience.
The back catalogue reads like a who's who of the Psychedelic Trance scene and TIP helped many top artists to launch their careers.

Today, with a roster of sought after, quality and dynamic artists, TIP continues to bring music and joy to dance floors around the world!

How would you describe your music style?

I’ve always called it “alternative-pop,” as a half-hearted, half-joke. Because truthfully, I love so many types of music that I think my love for blues, funk, rock, and pop will always shine through. When I sit down to first write a song, I try to focus on lyrics and melody, whether there's a guitar part already written or I'm writing to a piece of music. My goal has always been for everyone to feel and identify with the lyrics in some capacity while having a melody they can bump on the highway or have in their ear while they’re on break and everything in between; hopefully, it sticks with them. I want my music to help people get through life’s complex changes and winding roads, wherever it may take them. I want to help with any of those moments the best I can.

What artists inspire you?

I’m inspired by so many different aspects of different artists, from the guitar playing of Clapton, SRV, Hendrix, Rodrigio & Gabriela, to the songwriting of Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, Fiona Apple, Sara Bareilles, and Bob Dylan. Plus, I love the way bands and artists like Foo Fighters, Grateful Dead, and Justin Timberlake have mastered the art of live shows and performances, to how The Beatles and James Brown were masters of melody. If you’re out there doing your own thing, writing your music, and pouring your heart and soul into the craft that you love so much, then I think you’re inspiring everyone. I think you can draw inspiration from anyone doing it on their terms.
