Tape

**Tape** is a Swedish experimental trio known for blending ambient textures with organic instrumentation and subtle electronic touches. Formed in the early 2000s by brothers Andreas and Johan Berthling (multi-instrumentalists) alongside Tomas Hallonsten (keyboards, accordion), the group crafts hypnotic soundscapes that feel both intimate and expansive. Their work, like the dreamy *Luminarium* (2011) or the reimagined *Rideau (2022 remaster)*, often bridges acoustic warmth with glitchy, abstract details. Over the years, Tape’s releases—including *Opera Plus* and *Revelationes*—have solidified their reputation as pioneers of genre-defying, atmospheric music that rewards deep listening. Casual yet intricate, their sound feels like a quiet conversation between analog roots and digital curiosity.
