Electrypnose – 10 Essential Tracks

Electrypnose is the solo project of Vincent Rybicki aka Vince Lebarde , based in Switzerland. Created as early as 2001, the project’s aim is to showcase the multi-dimensional aspects of electronic music. At the beginning, Vince was working with a friend (Grand Mage) but soon after, different life choices made the 2 friends having to split up.

Vince had to carry the project by himself, and for the next couple of years, he was playing at various gigs in Switzerland, slowly starting to spread the unique Electrypnose signature sound. Alongside the live performances, he produced a lot of promotional material, further experiment with the borders of Psychedelic Trance. In 2003, the first track made its way to Peak Records, appearing in the compilation “Peaking Goddess” and made an immediate impact to the audience. A high technical production quality that soon caught the attention of many artists of the scene.

The project’s musical directions go from Chillout and alternative Electronica, to techno, to progressive for the night and the day, to forest night time and day time full on, then to upper bpm dark and twisted psytrance

Since then, Vince continued spreading his unique signature sound in various gigs, and even teamed up with his good friends, Baphomet Engine and Dejan, to create a friendly label called “Kabrathor” in 2004.
