VARGO - Live Impressions
This are live impressions of three gigs of Vargo: at the Planetarium, Berlin (album release party), at Mandarin Kasino, Hamburg (Café Abstrait feat. Vargo) and at Vion Studios Hamburg for a TV showcase.
Vargo - The Experience of Beauty
On our trip through Thailand and Cambodia we shot pictures full of serene beauty. This is a trailler of a planned DVD project which combines visual, natural and musical beauty. Each song has a special visual theme, one of the elements for example, or a special colour. The music for this project is produced in 5.1 surround-sound.

Album availlable worldwide at Amazon & itunes.
"Listening to Vargo is like a deep meditation, a journey to the inner self..."
- Qbi, Inspya Yoga
They are an electronic duo based in Hamburg/Germany.
As favoured regulars on the popular Café Del Mar and Buddha Bar compilations, Vargo have been on the scene for years producing, releasing and remixing for more than one hundred chill-out compilations which sold about two million copies worldwide.
With their debut album 'Beauty' they started their victorious career around the globe.
'Beauty', released in almost every country, created a worldwide fan base. In France Vargo was voted as band/act of the year 2006. In Singapore they reached the album top 40. In the USA they were nominated in three categories for the NAR Lifestyle Music Award, including Best Vocal Album.
Countless tv-adds and international award-winning commercial films impressively demonstrate the uplifting quality of vargo's music also for moving pictures.
"Inner peace in every single human being is an important requirement for peace in the world." Ansgar Üffink and Stephanie Hundertmark stated in an interview.
"Our aim is to create an atmosphere of comfort and well-being for the listener, an invitation to chill, to unwind, to let go completely."
Their album is beyond mere chill-out, Vargo have aesthetically advanced their electronic sound landscapes with classical, rather pop-song like structures. 'Beauty' invites the listener to gently dive into elaborately designed territory of sound, relax and at best, come closer to the inner self.
The exceptionally smooth and charismatic voice of Stephanie Hundertmark, embedded in Ansgar..s soundscapes, mesmerizing philosophical lyrics inspired by the words of William Blake and others, Beauty makes the perfect antidote for the stress and commotion of daily routine.
Vargo - that's the sunset on the beach. The license to chill.
Some press comments:
"This CD is an out of the world experience that will long stay in your mind for it provides the ultimate chill experience. In the short time I have had it, there is no doubt this has become one of my all time favorite CDs. Listeners will rejoice in discovering this internationally loved group. This unique blend of music is true poetry in motion. Very highly recommended..." - Suzie Housley, MyShelf U.S.

"...they lay down so many sophisticated and icy sounds you could use the music to chill your cocktail." - Sydney Morning Herald, Australia

"This is more than ambient-like pop music. It is balm for the soul." - Flesh Magazine
"If the sunset demanded a soundtrack, a soundsystem should be set up worldwide exclusively for Vargo ..." - Ambient Zone

”Walking Through” the door of perception where all is “One” and there exists the realization that God is sitting in the temple of every human body. Some are aware and have reverence, love, and compassion for each living soul as such but many are unaware of the Divine sitting at the throne within ones own consciousness. Such a total realization would end the egos state of separation responsible for war, pain, and suffering.
