Audiosex a.k.a Shambala networks Bio

Oliver gets in contact with music in a deeper and more individual way around 1992 …As a matter of fact he didn’t like electronic music at all by that time. 2unlimited, capella or any mainstream sound in the 90s was just ‘stupid music’ for him. One of the first influences was judas priest, painkiller … but heavy metal wasn’t his style either, though he loves judas or similar music even today.. he was very influenced by thrash, death, black metal and of course hardcore, like madball, biohazard etc … rap metal as well … some classical music and doom death too, like therion, paradise lost etc … when he found the underground side of electronic music in the mid 90s, he felt in love with it immediately… .. some recorded tapes were brought to him from germany by one of his neighbour .. he gave him cause he knew that Oliver loved this ‘sick rock music’… till these days he never knew what that was, what band or producer he just knew it was called techno hardcore, drum n bass, hard trance, etc... But still more influenced by metal music. The deepest contact with electronic music was in the late 90s when he meets trance.. goa trance, psytrance, etc. It was a total change in his life. Goa, ambient, darktrance, etc became his favourite style together with metal music … This influenced him so deeply that he started to think about producing music. He never really loved DJs and never really was interested in DJing, but producing became the essence of his life… He produced in all styles [breaks, electro, techno, minimal, deep house, trance, drum n bass, etc ] but the main style always remained psytrance and ambient . He created 2 projects(artistnames) Audiosex and Shambala networks . Audiosex is for psytrance and some hardtech / Dnb, etc and Shambala Networks is for ambient, downtempo, triphop , etc … He is also using his real name for electroclash, minimal, deephouse, etc. He started to produce in 2001 november … he wanted to do that earlier, but simply had no chance… no soft, no PC , etc … The first software was impulse tracker installed on a AMD PC 64 ram, 2giga hard , etc ..imagine… after that in 2003 he learned fruity loops on an Intel Pentium PC 500Mhz ,128ram, 6giga HDD , etc, but the best turn was in 2004 when he started to use Reason. He makes music till present days with reason on the same PC .. only that with 80giga HD.

2006 was the year when he released his first track on a compilation when he sent a demo CD to Lenny Dee’s label, industrial strength records. Compilation: Soundbites; track: Better Kill Others Than yourself. It was released on vinyl, style: hardcore & hard techno.

In the same year he made a deal with Ingrooves. Ingrooves is not a recordlabel and this is how audiosexrecords was created in 2006 november.. Ingrooves is a publisher, licensor and distribuitor, but not a label. In 2006 and 2007 he released a lot of digital download releases and in 2007 he released his first artist album on CD as well, called KillerHertz. (of course through his label) In 2008 he released his 2nd CD : Female Intuition. ..and as Shambala Networks he released his first CD in 2007, album: Deep Spiritual Network Connections.
