Carbon Based Lifeforms

Carbon Based Lifeforms (CBL) are Johannes Hedberg and Daniel Vadestrid based in Goteborg, Sweden.

They have released 7 official full length albums: ‘Hydroponic Garden’ (2003), ‘World of Sleepers’ (2006), ‘Interloper’ (2009) and ‘Twenty Three’ (2012), ‘Derelicts’ (2017), ‘Stochastic’ (2021) and ‘Seeker’ (2023).

Their music has been extraordinarily well received by connoisseurs within the ambient scene and well beyond. In a top 30 chart of the best Psybient albums of all time compiled by Rate Your Music, CBL were rated at # 1, 2, 5, 16 and 26 alongside such great artists as Sphongle, Solar Fields, Ott, AES Dana and many others.

CBL aim to combine earth and space in their music, using the combination of nature and technology as the main inspiration for their work.

They have played all over Europe and the US including many festival appearances such as Symbiosis (US), Anthropos (UK) and Ozora (Hungry) and in April 2025 played an incredible sold out show at London Earth Theatre.

For this performance there will be a bespoke Laser show which will be pretty special in the Classic Grand.
