Glitchy Tonic Records is proud to present Bipolar, the debut album by Vaeya (Vaibhav Bhavsar), an Indian psytrance producer living in Australia. Inspired by the diversity of people and music at parties–as well as the extreme vastness and untouched beauty of Australia–Vaeya began to compose electronic music in 2005. Now, after becoming more serious about music in the intervening years, he is ready to share nine compositions exhibiting a range of styles from dark and moody techno to luscious progressive and much in between. Mastered at Anti Logic Studio, Berlin.
