About Bibio

Genre
Electronic
A producer/instrumentalist with an adventurous, atmospheric style, Bibio's Stephen Wilkinson blends electronic, folk, hip-hop, and rock into transporting musical collages. On early albums such as 2006's Hand Cranked, his lo-fi mix of acoustic guitars, analog synths, and field recordings called to mind half-remembered times spent in the great outdoors. Gradually, Bibio's music became more structured and diverse: His 2009 breakthrough Ambivalence Avenue reflected influences as varied as J Dilla, Marcos Valle, and theme songs from '70s TV shows. Wilkinson continued to explore different sides of his music with accomplished results. On 2017's ambient excursion Phantom Brickworks and 2024's sequel Phantom Brickworks (LP II), his gifts for detailed atmospheres took the spotlight, while 2022's Bib10 (and its 2023 companion EP Sunbursting), put the guitar at the center of its smooth fusion of funk, soft rock, and Brazilian music.
