BiOS · Nu World Ambient – Electro-Acoustic Lounge

The Danish-German duo BiOS creates ambient soundscapes between World Music and electro acoustic Jazz. Arabian music, Indian flutes, solid Didgeridoo rhythms and well balanced electronic sounds and beats melt into a fine structure which shifts from relaxing lounge to grounded trance.
According to circumstances the duo of the Dane Flintholm and the Berliner Miethe easily adjusts the intensity of their music between meditative chill out and earthbound trance. At suitable opportunities BiOS plays as a trio with a marvelous world percussionist.
The experienced Danish composer, producer, keyboard and flute player Henning Flintholm and the Berlin Didgeridoo pioneer Marc Miethe met in 2013 and founded their new project BiOS.
