Factor B, the sonic architect hailing from the sun-soaked shores of Australia, has carved a distinct niche in the trance music landscape with his emotive and uplifting productions. Born Brendan Blatt, Factor B's journey into the world of electronic music began & evolved into a career marked by dedication and a relentless pursuit of musical transcendence.

Factor B's musical journey reached new heights with the release of his critically acclaimed album, "Theatre of the Mind," which soared to the number 1 spot on charts worldwide.
