Capricorn born 1972, homebase Stockholm, Sweden. Performing Vinyl DJ sets, creating Audio / Music productions, and graphic works. Collected music from the late 70´s, thru Hip Hop, Electro, House, Techno and other similar styles. The early 80´s where filled with breakdancing and spraypainting everything that was possible around the Stockholm areas. Early musical influences are coming from USA & Germany. "Remember GrandMaster Flash, DJ Red Alert, African Bambaata and the Soul Sonic Force, BDP, Busy B, Soundmasters, Egyptian Lover, and how about Ice-T in "Reckless" by Chris The Glove Taylor (including one of the first great TR-808 and TB-303 programmings ever). That was some amazing stuff back then, and i will never forget when Kraftwerk released Man Machine and Computer world. Then we have Mantronix, Ultramagnetic MC´s, Whoodini, them where great times!". All this got Cari to start collecting equipment for his own recording studio. International and national releases have been made on; Drumcode and Truesoul records, Code Red, Corb, Proper NYC, Harthouse, FFRR, JakPot, LoopP and Plumphouse Records, Missile, Jericho, Influence, Tortured, and Electrix Records UK, Primevil, Svek, Planet Rhythm, Tronic music, Experimental NYC, Ohm Records / Telegram, Analog USA. Own label projects include; Djupt, Grundtakt, Trainspotters Nightmare, AudioMekanixc, Audio Pollution, KGB, Direkt, Kaun trax, SpiritFuel, toghether with Hybrid Productions as the main platform. In 1998 a legal twist started between Hybrid Productions and Awex INC owned POP group called "Hybrid", which resulted into a name change - thus the dot after the H in H. Productions.

Though his productions haven't been major innovators on the techno scene, Cari Lekebusch has consistently recorded dozens of singles under pseudonyms like Mr. James Barth, Braincell and Vector, as well as his own name. Raised in Stockholm, Lekebusch began collecting records from an early age, and taped his own musical experiments. He began DJing professionally and organized parties around the area during the late '80s.
Several years later, Lekebusch began producing records part-time as well, after assembling his gear to found Hybrid Studios. He recorded for labels like Planet Rhythm, Loop, Plumphouse, R&S, ffrr, Svek, Proper NYC, Drumcode and Harthouse, later forming his own labels -- Hybrid Productions, Audio Pollution, Trainspotters Nightmare -- with Planet Rhythm owner Glen Wilson. Hybrid expanded by the late '90s to become a design company also, and Lekebusch released his first LP in 1996 -- Man of Many Theories as Braincell. Another full-length, Mr. James Barth's Stealin' Music, was released in 1998, and Lekebusch finally released an LP under his own name early the following year. He has also remixed for Claude Young, Steve Stoll, Surgeon and Adam Beyer, among others. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide (from mp3.com)
