A world that will bring your mind and soul at ease with the help of soothing harmonies and eclectic grooves, wonderful ethereal vocals and a various mix of rhythms.Tigerforest is the brainchild of Gunnar Spardel, a german electronic / ambient artist from Hamburg / Germany. Together with an array of amazingly talented vocalists from all around the world he created a beautiful mix of Chill Out, House, Trance and Ambient Music to create a playground of emotions. There is a forest up in the arctic circle called Tigerforest. It produces more than half of the oxygen produced from trees on the planet. The forest has a very short growing cycle, just one month, and in that time it produces all of that oxygen. I was really moved by the idea that there is a forest that seems so far away, but is having a big positive affect on the planet. Certainly music can also have such abilities in different ways. Music means much more to me than playing white and black keys together in some harmonious or disharmonious accordance and order. It's more than making impressive eclectic soundscapes or sequences with some content. Music is my life. Music is my playground of emotions and at each time the mirror of my innermost being. Gunnar Spardel was born on the 17th of August 1981 in a suburb of Germany´s second biggest City called Hamburg.After being classically trained in keyboard / piano play he build up his own studio including synthesizers and computers when he was a teenager. The accompanying piano lessons are unavoidable and leave their mark on his future musical output."The very first time I came into contact with a keyboard was already at the age of 12 when I began to take keyboard lessons. Unfortunately it took more than further 3 years till I finally came into contact with my first synthesizer. That was in late 1995. I was already very familiar with the world of electronic music for years. After nearly two years of pure "experiments" and technically not well equiped I started to compose my own music and today with a look over my shoulders, I see that was definitly the right decision for me."The musical "roots" of Tigerforest, among others, can be found in the musicgenres chill out, trance, house and ambient. From these "roots" in Electronic Music Tigerforest developed his own musical style, without sticking to the "rules" of dedicated genres. Therefore the music of Tigerforest cannot easily be put into one of the common genre-drawers such as Trance, Ambient, Pop, Jazz, Avantgarde, Classical or Electronic.On the search for new musical sounds and structures one thing is especially important for my music: the music should be accessible to the listener, touching his emotions. In many parts of these days Dance or Electronic Music the main purpose of music moves too far into the background. Music is made for listening to, it must have a meaning. The listener must be able to emotionally experience the music, otherwise the music becomes insignificant, meaningless, becomes a noise.
