Carbon Based Lifeforms (CBL) are Johannes Hedberg and Daniel Vadestrid (né Segerstad), both born in 1976 and based in Göteborg, southwest Sweden. They met when both 15 and are still, amazingly, working happily together, over 25 years later. CBL itself was formed in 1996, as an offshoot from other projects, but it soon became their focal point, culminating in their first release on ‘mp3.com’ in 1998. Even before this, 1996’s “The Path” is their unreleased and highly sought after demo that any listeners fortunate to hear the contents will immediately recognise as the genesis of the group’s unique sound.
