Mindsphere (Ali AKGUN) was born in Istanbul in 1976. He started his musical career in the mid 90s playing the guitar and singing in his heavy metal band. After playing around a lot of concerts, he became interested in electronic music. After that, he bought some equipment and started producing goa trance and ambient music. His first live act was in 2003, and he really felt something that he never could describe before. After seeing people dance and what they wanted from the music, he continued his songs that way. In 2005, Ali created the first Turkish Goa Psychedelic Trance web portal Psyturk.com which integrated the Turkish goa psy scene. After some years, a label called "Metapsychic Records" found him and released his first album Inner Cyclone. And it gets great feedbacks from goa trance lovers!His another side is a project called Mindphoria, style between ambient and spacey down tempo. Mindsphere participated to Suntrip's Opus Iridium compilation with an ambient track called Frozen Sleep. He is still playing live acts in different places around the world. Now, he's producing his second Mindsphere album and it will be the masterpiece for Goa trance lovers!
