Blue Foundation

Blue Foundation is a music band. Their cinematic dream pop, shoegaze and electronics inspired compositions are known for being featured in films like Twilight, Miami Vice and on TV shows like CSI: Miami and The Vampire Diaries.

Danish singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Tobias Wilner founded the group in 2000, inspired by Mark E. Smith's approach to forming a band (the Fall), recruiting a rotating cast of traditional musicians throughout the band's history to inspire creativity. Today the band is based in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn and Copenhagen, Denmark. Since 2008 their line-up has consisted of Tobias Wilner (producer, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist) and Bo Rande (producer, multi-instrumentalist). Blue Foundation has gained major recognition with the remix of their song "Eyes on Fire" by Zeds Dead with more than 80 million plays on YouTube. Blue Foundation is sampled by Lil Durk featuring French Montana on his track "Fly High", Young Thug's song "She Noticed", and Emilio Rojas' "Seek You Out". Blue Foundation will release their fifth album "Blood Moon" worldwide September 2. 2016. The album features appearances from Mark Kozelek (Sun Kill Moon/ Red House Painters), Erika Spring (Au Revoir Simone/ Nice As Fuck), Jonas Bjerre (Mew), Sonya Kitchell, Sara Savery (aka Drop the Gun) and Findlay Brown.
