It was Great fun to make this album. science fiction music pur sang. I have some plans to add a voice in a next dsm track, not singing but a story teller. First we have to think of a little story to tell.......

Been listening to this album almost none stop since I got it. Over and over, hearing different elements each time. I highly recommend this one. Its like licking an ice cream cone with every lick a different flavor..

In the next few weeks, I'll be airing it on the radio. Doing a different track each week. I play this stuff to a population of almost a quarter million. The station is well established. I know the music is good, been into it for close to 30 years... I'm just as baffled...

Thanks Eppie, Just my humble opinion, but our audience is one cult member at a time...

Here is a nice review www.gutsofdarkness.com/god/objet.php?objet=12315In English : Here is my review of The Lost Temple...;Once again, the Dutch duet Dutch Space Mission brings us to the doors of a boiling cosmos. A foggy cosmos where Eppie E Hulshof’s guitar winds its solos under Bert Hülshoff’s pleasant synthesized waves, making of The Lost Temple Of Xi Cephei an inescapable for the fans of Rock Space and of Berlin School EM. It is in the cosmic fog, of some metallic steams fragrance, that opens Between Birth And Death Of A Black Hole. A vaporous synth, to steel breaths, shells its chords in an astral oblivion which marries the ashes of an electric guitar. An intro which will certainly please the amateurs of Pink Floyd on Wish you Where Here. Very atmospheric, Between Birth And Death Of A Black Hole flows slowly, in tortuous lanes, on a synth which waltzes with the lamentations of a ethereal guitar to sharp breaths. The title track (The Lost Temple of Xi Cephei) opens on a strange world of reverberations. Compacted and sinuous sound waves which mold a heavy and atonal movement, in an atmosphere cold as can be the heavenly ceiling. Slowly the structure livens up on a fine sequenced movement which increases such a gallop, paving the way at the curly solos of Eppie E Hulshof on a pace which faints in limbs at around the 18th minute spot. From then on, the cosmic waves invade our eardrums, filtering slightly the initial sequence which beats weakly the tempo. A sequence which becomes more spurred on, waltzing unevenly on sweet stratums which soak into a lunar atmosphere, pummels by synths and guitars solos. A magnificent blend of Space Rock and Berlin School. It is quite gently that The Vikings of Tau Ceti begins. A short-term sweetness, because of heavy guitar riffs rob this slack period, under crystal thunders. A fine sequence tries to pierce this sound storm and waddles under a synth with curly stratums.Quietly, the sequence increases the tempo, irradiating another one more accentuated. Two rhythms which intertwine, surrounded by a discreet guitar which leaves all the place to the nuances of the hypnotic rhythms. At the mid-course the tempo becomes smoother as deaf arrhythmia pulsations, changing the rhythmic structure which becomes more neurotic, under a beautiful synthesized shower. Beautiful Berlin School. This 4th collaboration of the duet Eppie E Hulshof and Bert Hülshoff, is a success. The Lost Temple Of Xi Cephei is an excellent album which is very different from Cosmic Grunn, released earlier this year. It’s an intense opus bubbling of rhythms which intermingle under synths and guitars which stumble between Space Rock and Berlin School. One of inescapable for 2009. Sylvain Lupari (Phaedream) from Guts Of DarknessThe French Magazine of Dark & Experimental Music
