Cloud

There are multiple artists with this name. Also shares a name with a remixer from OverClocked Remix. Hailing from Gothenburg in Sweden (home to our very own Plej), Cloud (aka Alex Berg) has an undisputable musical history. Brought up by musical parents and with his older brother Hird already having a successful recording career (his recent album "Moving On" has been creating quite a stir in the future-jazz scene), it was a natural choice for Cloud to step into the studio... Gothenburg has been putting Sweden firmly on the music map of late, with a huge amount of young talent emerging.

Somehow they ended up in a shopping trolley and have been tolerating each other ever since.
