Biosphere - The Shield

[@roybatty100]

This was the first Biosphere track I ever heard,and Im still amazed at the impact this sound has on my brain.

[@themusic2189]

Same here. Timeless track.

[@jacquelinecraig152]

Me too!

[@narcoserrasalom6464]

I listened this song +15 years ago while on shrooms. Played it today... My god..Nostalgy is a one thing but this tune has some spirit for sure! Amazing stuff. Thank you Biosphere!

[@Technickcall]

I can imagine this coming on at 2am on Mtv in the 90s and being blow away

[@Caztaneda76]

Was there ! From the begining. First party in -92 or -93 mate 😉

[@Krezmick]

So glad I grew up with this music. Makes me for who i am today.

[@nbcool]

Back in the days where MTV was Brilliant. The chill out zone - the party zone. They used to take a completely different approach towards music than todays MTV pimp my ride etc GARBAGE. They used to play Biosphere, FSOL, the ORB etc. I miss those days.

From a nowadays perspective, I even miss "pimp my ride"

[@KibyNykraft]

That is why the NRK Svisj (purely music) in Norway outcompeted VH1 and MTV in Norway for a few years, but it was a temporary channel project. While the MTV was full of crap and little music, and the litle music there was, was all rubbish american charts for women and teenage girls.

[@BronnikovOleg]

Да, помню, тоже ждал и смотрел по пятницам Party Zone

[@WARDISWARD]

Exactly , especially after a long night out ...saturday night chill out zone

[@wbwright79]

"will i dream" ... love the audio samples mix with this soundtrack. it takes you someplace else

[@andrechapmanza]

That's SAL 9000 from 2010 The Year We Make Contact (follow up from 2001 A Space Odyssey) asking if she dreams

[@justadev____7232]

I'm glad I got to experience this time era. Electronic music will never be the same. I still remember late nights staying up to watch MTV's AMP show.

[@Braindestructor]

I remember when MTV was about real art & music and not about pregnant teenagers..

[@MrSmeezer]

true but then the internet came around and made mtv useless

[@DimensionalCollapse]

Now it stands for Making Teens Vulnerable.

[@justfuntimedoingnothing8477]

@@MrSmeezer true. MTV would just blow away from general television

[@PeopleR2sensitive]

biosphere, easily one of the best ambient artist if not electronic artist ever

[@norwegiangiants]

Our favourite track by biosphere. no doubt

[@maniantonov]

I just love that kind of misterious chill out music! It's so relieving!❤

[@GotterVibez]

from Biosphere to Bieber and Gaga ? ?? Way to go MTV !

[@jellycoding]

LOL! so true, so sad.

[@jayc2469]

I remember this so well. We were on the tail end of the Cold War and going into a new world, not a New World Order as some claimed. Memories of when MTV was worth getting a dish for, still abound when hearing this. Timeless and never tiring

[@grommie]

Got this cd. Absolutly changed my preference to techno. 1 of his has to beplayed on my funeral.❤

[@bradakb]

such a young minds... chillout zone played orb, orbital, FSOL et al. as well. i miss it... the '90th ambient flow... thnx envanligfjant !

[@carnophage35]

hard to believe that i discovered this so late! it´s a masterpiece and i can´t stop listen to it!

[@caeruleana]

What the fuck? MTV ever played this? The real MTV? I am going to collapse right now. This is unbelievable! Hail Biosphere! Hail Geir Jenssen.

[@Antarath]

Fantastic, especially being from MTV haha. Unbelievable.. even by beliebers :D Hails from Norway

[@napohond]

Yeah, Party Zone and Chillout Zone were proper amazing. Saturday night, got back from clubbing/pubbing, drunk and/or stoned as hell and then you'd watch this stuff. Happy days.

[@perttu1000]

AMAZING TRACK!! I remember listening to this in 1994-5 and found it again yesterday, in an art exhibition of Saraceno. One of his pieces was a short film that had a soundtrack sounding a lot like Biosphere. Check this guy's webpage, both Biosphere and he connect nature and space technology perfectly. I highly recommend checking out the man's art and the philosophy behind it: bin short, nature's forms, like spider webs, are repeated in human technologies as well as in space (galaxies etc).

[@zoltanpajor9369]

Timeless.💗🖤 we are out.....we free

[@MemoryLaneCinema]

yeah mtv was very good in the 90's. A lot of good music. They gave a lot of publicity to Jungle/DNB aswell. MTV were breaking boundaries

[@beowolf19751]

Awesome music!!!!! Go Biosphere!!!

[@antikoerper101]

Yeah, I still have a recording on VHS of the same clip form the classy Chill Out Zone :-) This video.... not to forget the track... is fantastic.

[@biconWax]

an all time classic. soundtrack for the end of the world, a moment before the massive impact of a giant comet...

[@sq7ro]

there was also a Partyzone where some Biosphere tunes have been played, for example Clodwalker II or Cygnus-A

[@occidentalrage6465]

A very good musician and artist. And a great peace of work ! High @ all

[@envanligfjant]

@weepini You bet your fucking ass they did. Once upon a time, before the invention of the reality show, MTV actually meant "Music Television" and they did in fact play music which was not in the top 10. One could not LIVE without The Chillout Zone, saturdays at 2 a.m.

[@PsilocybeRain]

This is completely amazing.

[@pathduck]

Love it thanks for the upload!

[@nothority_artist]

This one will play on my funeral

[@BronnikovOleg]

Когда MTV было не хламом, был Party Zone и Chill Out Zone. Каждую пятницу ждал, садился к телевизору с приятным чувством, там крутили такое, космическое

[@justfuntimedoingnothing8477]

Вы, наверное, разочаруетесь, если я вам это скажу, но MTV бы уже давно закрылся, следуя бывшим традициям пускать музыкальные клипы. На его смену давно пришел интернет.

[@BronnikovOleg]

@@justfuntimedoingnothing8477 интернет существует давно, но каналов MTV стало только больше. Но я их уже не смотрю. Там нет братьев Юкка, Бивиса и Батхеда, по настоящему интересных тематических программ, "Злобных зрителей", PostModern и Парти зон. Трава была зеленей, а мы просто моложе и оторваней. О том и ностальгирую

[@justfuntimedoingnothing8477]

@@BronnikovOleg Интернет то, появился давно, но не у всех был! В 90-е и 00-е большинство людей телик смотрели, вот и было желание у редакторов канала такое пилить - куй железо, пока горячо! Да и не думаю, что если бы такой ролик показали по телеку сейчас, стал бы его кто-нибудь смотреть; вместо этого и запускают такое по инету, либо в открытый доступ как здесь, либо куда-то на Спутифай наверное - не шарю в этом уж сильно.

[@justfuntimedoingnothing8477]

@@BronnikovOleg Сам ролик, к тому же, длинный. Половина людей уже бы выключили его, если по ТВ увидели. Не то сейчас время - всем подавай что-нибудь громкое, сочное и яркое. Искусство, где все идет тихо и спокойно сейчас не так актуально. Вдобавок, люди не синтементальные настолько как, было 27 лет назад при выходе видео. Все стали злыми, нравственными, меркантильными.... Чего-то душевного в нашем теперешнем мире мало, а если и есть, то плохо ценится и плохо берётся.

[@nutelina]

To add to the comments, best were the Mtv remixes of F.S.O.L. and others. The shield, timeless classic!
