Ivã had his first contact with the psychedelic world in 1997, close to the beginning of the sykadelic movement in Portugal. His interest began through visual arts; his education was related to the plastic arts. 
Began around 1998 as a GoaTrance DJ when a friend (DJ Marte) asked him to join a small party. The Muses Rapt was the first project that captured their attention seriously, and to date his friend heart. 
With the help of most close friends in 1999, created the BlueSphere label, he co-produced some events with names like Chris Organic, Mick Chaos, Infected Mushroom and Bamboo Forest for the first time in Portugal. 
He was known for his attitude in the middle, contagious! 
Put some samples in the tracks, taken from sources such as, documentaries, films and lectures, to enable some hearing in Portuguese! Possibly the mother tongue was premiered on land Lusa on psychedelic movement! 
He worked for the label Ayauaska Rec, sharing a label with the names of the Portuguese scene which stands out, Suria and N3xus. 
Over the years his interest to softer environments grew, and he began to improve his technique as a Chillout DJ. He founded the project Tachyon with Daniel (Zen Baboon). In his sets, Ivã creates an intense and emotional journey, using some sounds psychedelic, progressive, and some world music, all mixed in a very happy and relaxed. 
Since 2005 is part of the international team Electrik Dream, with the guidance of Stephan (Tajmahal). 
Through all these years, besides his work as a DJ, Ivã did some work as a VJ and participated in co-production of various forms at numerous parties of nearly all the labels in Portugal.
Since 2007 until now is the manager of the chillout area of Freedom Festival.

Mbye Ebrima is a djéli: kora player, singer, composer and historian.

He was born in 1988 in The Gambia, where he lived most of his life.

He comes from the family of djélis, both on the part of his mother, as his father. His father, Alagi Mbye, is currently one of the best kora players in The Gambia. He is also the oral historian who tells the history in a weekly national radio program. His father’s elder brothers also plays kora, and his paternal grandfather is a great kora master. But the kora players are also in the family of his mother: her father, grandfather and brother also play kora. His mother, Jabou Susso, is djélimuso and she dedicated herself to singing. Mbye has music in his blood but he also has the gift that allowed him to develop quickly the art of playing kora, although he has started to learn relatively late.

Mbye Ebrima lived his childhood and adolescence with his mother and her brother, Solo Susso (djéli kora master) in Brikama. During this period he dedicated himself completely to his studies and did not give too much attention to the kora of his uncle. 

At 16 he went to visit his father in Surkunda and he decided to move there, to spend some time with him. It was there that one day he decided to try to play kora and asked one of his father's students to teach him one song. From then on he has never stopped. He was spending whole days practicing, rapidly evolving and surprising his family and friends.
A few months later he began to accompany his stepmother, a djélimusso, at her singing actuations. He began to be known and considered a good player. Sometimes he did duets with his father or even trios with his father and his brother.
At 22 he began to teach. When his father was traveling, he used to give lessons to his father's students.

At the same time, along with his friends, he created the group called Mama Africa. They played afro-Mandingue music with a very specific groove, which attracted the audience, not only in The Gambia. The group - composed of kora, balafon, drums, percussion, keyboard and saxophone - acted in several places in The Gambia and also in Senegal. 

He was also a part of the Kora Symphony group, created by the Gambian President, which consisted of 30 kora players. He was one of the six fixed group members and several times he was the soloist of the group. The Kora Symphoy acted in various official ceremonies.

At 25 he decided to meet other cultures and countries and left for Senegal. After a few weeks in the neighboring country, he went to Zimbabwe and then to Tanzania, where he spent about 8 months, teaching the kora music at the Dhow Countries Music Academy  (DCMA) in Zanzibar. He has participated in music festivals in Tanzania, recorded a program for South African television, and tried to play taabar – the local music – on his kora.

In Tanzania he met the director of the German company Mama Africa. The person, after listing to his kora interpretations, invited him to be part of this group. After two weeks, with the signed contract, Mbye Ebrima landed in Europe. With Mama Africa Company he made several concert tours in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

In February 2015 he visited Lisbon and he liked this multicultural and open city, and the people who wanted to listen to his kora and to his history. He decided to settle here for a few months. In addition to acting solo, he created and makes part of several projects. He has already performed in several stages of the Portuguese capital and he also gave the concerts in Porto, Algarve, Ponta Delgada and soon he is going play in other portuguese cities. He was invited to perform in the program “Conversas ao Sul” of RTPÁfrica and to the programme "Música sem espinhas" de Nuno Sardinha on RDPÁfrica. His last concert at B.Leza (13th Jan 2016) was recorded by RTP and it will be emited on television very soon.


A music producer and DJ with several releases and tracks on many compilations around the world, Sérgio Walgood is involved in an array of projects participating actively in several events, from big festivals to smaller ones. To name a few, among others are ZNA Gathering, Boom Festival, Ozora, Human Evolution Festival, Hadra festival, Sonica, Freedom festival, and many others.
The diversity of approaches he presents makes it difficult to define his work in its fullness. This homonymous project explores sound environments with a very own approach to Downtempo and Techno, always with a support in psychedelic sonorities that transport the listener through multiverse musical environments.
In parallel with this solo project, he also participates in Angular Momentum (Experimental Ambient and techno), OCO (World Music/Fusion Live band) and Fluorest (Psychedelic Trance).

"life is balance, you will balance with the rhythm of your feet."

Sigil, aka Andrew, expresses his inner self in sonic form. It turns out that his inner self is quite patient and elegant, unlike the clumsy meat-suited human that stumbles around Earth. 

He has enjoyed bleary moments waiting around airports in order to perform all over Europe at festivals such as Boom (Portugal), Ozora (Hungary), Anthropos (UK), Kosmos (Finland), Egodrop/Goa Dupa (Poland), SUN (Hungary), Sonica (Italy), Festival Harmonic (France) and of course Suti (though he drives to that one).
 
Andrew has two other musical projects - psy-techno "Unicorn Hunters" with Seb G, and experimental semi-improvised live act "AMP Project" with Patrick Ferreira (clarinet) and Marco Rosa (violin). He is also one of the main disorganisers of Suti Festival, a small gathering focused on cutting edge psychedelic music in Portugal. As "Sigil Audio" he works on sound design projects for digital artists. He lucked out in being welcomed into the epically good label Merkaba Music and rather lovely Portuguese chill collective "Moondance". 

Sigil lists his sense of humour among his strengths, while writing biographies for himself in the third person sits firmly on the side of his weaknesses. If you join his Patreon he will show you some ways to get a computer to make silly noises for you.
