Blue Foundation is an American band founded in 2000 by producer and singer Tobias Wilner. The band is based in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. Since 2008 their line-up has consisted of Tobias Wilner (producer, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist) and Bo Rande (multi-instrumentalist). Best known for their songs “Eyes on Fire” from the Twilight Saga and “Sweep” from Michael Mann’s Miami Vice. The music can be described as a mix of dream pop, electronica, shoegaze and hiphop.

Tobias Wilner released the first Blue Foundation single via MoshiMosh Recordsi and the first, self-titled album was released shortly thereafter. During the past several years, Blue Foundation have expanded their audience, embracing both the underground and the alternative mainstream. Blue Foundation’s music has been featured in major films such as Twilight, Miami Vice and the TV series The O.C. Blue Foundation released their third album Life of a Ghost in Scandinavia in 2007. The album was released in USA on Astralwerks in 2009.

The latest released material from Blue Foundation is “Red Hook” (The Berrics - GO ALL DAY),
“Watch you Sleeping” feat. Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon) / “Dream (3:11 PM)
and the new single “Heads on Fire”. A re-recorded/re-edit version of Zeds Dead’s RMX.

Blue Foundation is running a label from their NYC studio called DPC Records.

    @Mockingbird_Inc I'm not sure what you meant, but here is what IS sure: the first three albums (Blue Foundation, Sweep of Days & Life of a Ghost) featured different people from those contributing to In My Mind I Am Free. The main female vocalist was Kirstine, but she along with everybody except for Bo Rande and of course Bichi left the group some time ago, so they are not on the new album (which is rather unfortunate, I would say.)

    @saturnine- wassup with vocalist-girl? i.. just love her voice! and there are some tracks with her voice in the new album. also, do you think there are too much of reverb?

  • saturnine-

    They were originally from Denmark. Bichi is Danish though he has been living in the US for some time now. Also, the former female vocalist, Kirstine Teglbjaerg was also danish, and yeah, there used to be a Japanese turntablist and the MC was an English guy, Scott Martingell (aka MC Jabber). Now it's just Bichi and Bo Rande, and some new recurring artists

    @agacinco They are actually a multinational band. They somewhat do their music in US but most of the members are Danish and there are some that are Japanese.
