Information
Info
Elysium has been around since 1994, releasing a variated amount of music on labels such as Nova Zembla, TIP, Dragonfly, BNE, Iboga, Chill Tribe and Avatar Records. The debut single “Project One†became a worldwide dancefloor hit, with its ethnic tribal sound. The following debut album “Dance for the Celestial Beings†is considered one of the all-time Goa classic albums containing tracks such as “Keep It Coolâ€, “Aliens†and “Illusive Worldâ€. Before Danish Kristian Thinning Andersen formed Elysium he had released a number of projects on labels such as legendary belgian R&S Records. He has furthermore released music as Sheyba (with Jean Borelli aka Orion), Kailash (with Tsuyoshi) and more. Elysium have played all over the World and is back with a 2 hour live performance playing old tracks remixed into a more progressive sound and new more progressive material taken from his upcoming CD release.
A new ethnic, tribal progressive CD will be released Spring 2006 and a experimental downbeat CD is also expected to be released during 2006 plus various apperances on compilations and a few "12. inch releases.
