"Conceived into this Universe", as he puts it, raised in New York City and self-educated, Soul Spectrum a.k.a Boris Babaev was priviledged to experience the massive club sound of the 90's dance music revolution and have it influence him to make it a major part of his life."The very few times I would actually be fulfilled from a night out dancing is if I would go to two or even three clubs in one night because these clubs catered only to certain styles of music; It would either be Progressive House or Trance or whatever..."
Sitting comfortably in his home-studio, Boris comments on his musical preferences. "What I wanted to do was to sort of combine all these different musical elements from all these djs to achieve the satisfaction I was looking to hear.""I love the drums and funk of house music but I also feel that without any synth parts progressing them onward it's sort of 'incomplete'."Boris has this philosophy connecting the process of music making and the individual. "The music that I make is not just a bunch of boring loops put together. It has depth, soul, so you can keep on dancing with passion . It progresses, evolves, as I continue to progress and evolve; From the darkness, because it is from being there, that I can see the eventual light. I believe in the power of the Individual-Self. The Divine Magic that is in all of us that separates us as well as unites us; It makes us distinct, unique, whole, and complete. I wish this for all beings through my music. Belief in yourself to do anything, everything. Good-bad, crazy-sane, night-day. Integration of the extremes. It's all the same thing anyway. Just opposite ends of the Soul's Spectrum."
