Voici une interview des grands carbon based lifeforms (faite en anglais désolé ^^ )
Bonne lecture
electrOne : How & when did you meet yourselves ? Did you start making music since this time ?
Carbon Based Lifeforms : We met in 9th grade and became the best of friends a couple of months later, getting into a lot of music, videogames, movies and comic books, typical semi-geeks in the 90’s. We got introduced to music making by Mikael Lindquist (aka: Tony Montana, Oxygenial, Digidroids etc.). He made music on his Amiga using a very basic audio sequencer named Fasttracker. So we joined forces with him forming the tracker group “Bassment Studios”. After a few years of tracking we moved on to MIDI and sequencers and formed a group called Notch.
With Notch we explored most of the genres of electronic dance music. We had quite a big impact on various sites around the web and despite various discussions with a lot of different labels we only released a remix of Mourning Afters – “What would you think” (Swedish synthpop, released on pulsewave records)
E1 : Before Carbon based lifeforms (CBL), you had a project called Notch, you album was for free downloading on your site. Why has Notch been stopped ?
CBL : We're not sure really We rarely hang out with Mikael these days and our other projects have been taking more and more time. You might say that Notch was the mother that sprung new projects (CBL, Thermostatic, sync24, Oxygenial, Digidroids). We are actually planning to produce more up-tempo music again, but probably not under the name Notch, maybe as CBL
E1 : Why did you choose the name CBL ? Where does it come from ?
CBL : “Carbon Based Lifeforms” was the name of Notch's second demo-album. When we realized that we needed a name for our ambient project Daniel saw it as the only possible name and sort of convinced Johannes If you are interested in our musical history you should visit Daniels site www.sync24.se and click “other projects”. It's a work in progress but almost everything is there.
