Electrypnose comes from the mix of "Electric" and "Hypnosis" (Hypnose in French)
Operated by Vince LeBarde, Electrypnose – the electric hypnosis – is mainly a psytrance project. Over the years it has evolved into a broad exploration of many genres and sub-sub-sub genres, whether connected to psytrance or not.
Based in Switzerland, the laboratory never sleeps. Since 2001, more than ten albums and over a hundred tracks have been released on various labels, while Vince performs at major festivals, secret doof parties, and club nights around the world.
Blending trance with techno, dark prog with forest, tech house with progressive, downtempo with jazz, classical, or hip-hop – you name it. Electrypnose is all about breaking boundaries: deep or light, happy or sad, angry or soft. Every sound, whether inspired by humans, nature, or even aliens, finds its way here.
Experimenting and exploring without borders, Vince aims to share every sonic discovery with you, creating a direct connection to music and sound.
A bit of history
In 2001, Electrypnose began as a duo project with a friend (Grand Mage) as a way to explore the psy trance genre. Eventually, different life paths turned it into Vince’s solo venture.
2002 marked the first performance at a small, private party in the Swiss mountains. In 2003, a promo album called "Reve de Neige" was distributed by the Psy-CZ group, and the first track was released on Peak records – Switzerland’s first psytrance label.
The record label "Kabrathor" was launched in 2004 with close friends, and in 2005 came the first online/digital album by Resonantearth. That same year, the Primitif Workshop was born—a gathering in Switzerland for electronic musicians worldwide to share their passion, knowledge, and skills.
Since then, Electrypnose has continued to release new material alongside international gigs and deepening creative projects.
