A resident of the West Midlands, England, Stephen Wilkinson developed a passion for experimental music during his time at the University of London, where he studied the "sonic arts". He developed his own style of music, drawing from contemporary experimental electronica bands such as Boards of Canada and Autechre, and incorporating field recordings and found sounds. Electronically modified guitar melodies and droning synthesizer sounds are a recurring theme in his pieces, causing many people to label his music as a hybrid of electronica or intelligent dance music and traditional folk music.
Marcus Eoin of the band Boards of Canada is a patron of Bibio, describing the project as "the antidote to the modern laptopia of pristine electronic music
Hi mate . Your music is fucking beautiful. I love Boards of canada. But think you offer something slightly different. The layered guitar stuff is reallly cool and i think your songs are well crafted.
Take care and i am eagerly awaiting your new material. best - Colvin
