Aural Float is a German electronic trio consisting of Gabriel Le Mar, Alex Azary, and the late Pascal FEOS. Formed in the early 1990s, they became central figures in the 'Frankfurt Sound' of ambient and chillout.
Their work is inextricably linked to the 'Space Night' television program, for which they provided the creative direction and soundtrack, utilizing NASA and ESA footage to create a holistic audiovisual experience. Their sound identity is characterized by high-production values, 'liquid' textures, and a blend of ambient techno with sophisticated lounge elements. Over their career, they evolved from experimental ambient trance on 'Introspectives' to a more structured, 'high-end' pop-influenced electronic sound on 'Beautiful Someday'. They occupy a unique cultural position as pioneers of the 'lounge' movement who maintained technical credibility through their roots in the techno scene. Their influence persists in the realm of audiovisual installations and high-fidelity electronic production.
