Perfect Stranger (Iboga, Israel)
Perfect Stranger is Yuli Fershtat, born 1970 also well known under the guise of BLT.

progressive project under Iboga's guidance and promotion. The project "Perfect Stranger"
presents a progressive dance music approach, highly psychedelic, tribal, atmospheric and
challenging.
Whether playing live or as a DJ his sets are of a very hypnotic nature, and when caught
at the beginning you won't leave the dance floor.

psychedelic carnival covering. His style is unique with, you always know when you’re
hearing a Talpa composition yet you can be assured each of his tracks tells a different
story.
