Noosphere Biography
Psy-trance duo Noosphere emerged from Northern Germany in the late '90s and began releasing full-length albums while most of its peers continued releasing strictly 12" singles. Comprised of Niels Paschen and Eberhard Schulz, Noosphere released its debut full-length, Radiated, on Twisted Records in 1999. The duo returned in 2002 with Aqua for Spirit Zone, an album that featured co-production work by Marcus Maichel of X-Dream. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
