We became involved via Monkey Pilot of Whirly-gig who introduced us to Matt Therapy. After half an hour at the Planet Angel August party we knew we'd found the best party vibe in London. 

ImageBio are Andy Young and Ade Chapman. We write and deliver upfront progressive to blistering trance tuneage as witnessed at the Planet Angel Party, Friday 13th Sept last year. Bio music is all about the organic process, letting things flow rather than trying to actively mould our music into a predetermined shape. We strongly believe that everything happens for a reason and that reason is music! Ok so we're obsessed.We began writing at the end of 2001 and spent the whole winter locked away in our studio creating the Bio sound - deep progressive vibes mixed with upfront trance euphoria, the kind of music which is equally at home on your stereo or in the meltdown room at peaktime. Pete Angel called it intelligent music - we like him!

Our first live PA proper was at Planet Angel on the anything's gonna happen date of Friday 13th September 2002 which for us was undoubtedly the highlight of our year. We loved the vibe of the party and we played a set which progressed to a blistering finale - if only every hour could be like that one!Luckily, the set was recorded and in the following month it was synergetically decided to release the recording complete with crowd as a cd and that's how Planet Angel Records was born.

Musically both Ade and myself (especially) are extremely difficult to please and will rant for hours over things which displease us about the current music scene. I guess we'll always feel precious about what's happening to the scene and the lack of intelligence out there in the industry and on the average dancefloor these days - that's why we love Planet Angel so much as it encompasses many of our own ideals.

We've both been in this game a long time since the birth of rave (and before). Ade working by himself and me in The Secret, and although it's one of the toughest (read skintest) lives to choose, there's nothing more fulfilling to us than being locked into that computer or synth literally watching a new world of sound being created in front of you, or giving it large to an audience that knows its beans. Planet Angel RULES!
