I bought the track in the Netherlands by Gerrit Melodymaker, probably the greatest shop which sells Synthesizer Disco, I guess. A had the privilege to listen the tracks before, but on CD they always sound better. A new production of Michiel van der Kuy and Rob van Eijk, they already did so many things. Great they produce together again. Well selected samples, good sounds, beautiful melodies...

1. Introx: A intro used before by Michiel, great sample: of the first man who tells he had in 1954 a special experience, amazing beautiful melody gives a good feeling. Beautiful strings.

2. Journey in My Mind: What a starter! With a lead with a great effect and which sometimes filtered, not done often in the early days I guess. Nice sounds effects and female vocal sample.

3. Sector 9: A really energy synthesizer track with that Koto bass. Great leads like we know from the works we already have in our collection. The bells and synths give you extra energy.

4. Into Oblivion: Great synth and samples with the Koto-a-like bass. Sounds likes old times!

5. From the Sun: What a beautiful intro with a very sensitive female vocal sample, from an opera or movie I guess. Laserdance bass and well known synthesizer sounds.

6. Virus: Gives the feeling of Dragon's Legend.

7. Martian Storm: For a time we thought we’'ll never hear that wonderful Laserdance bass in a new production, but now here it is. With those superb synthesizer sounds of that good day you can enjoy that sound again.

8. Imminent Attack: I like this one very much, Koto-a-like-bass, and a great new lead sounds plays like these days, filled with the standard synthesizer sounds. Short vocoder makes is complete.

9. Fire When Ready: The famous synths played like a in that great times before. Of course with space samples. You keep listening to that snare, once your heard it, and the way that play it. Nice bells, hi-hats and that wonderful Laserdance bass, hmm I like it.

10. Bionic Man: With famous sample of the television series of the Six Million Dollar Man with Lee Majors. Well used, the short Koto basses driven, great leads, a new synth sound takes you.

We had to wait for this album of that great synthesizer guys, but is was worth of waiting for. It’s a super album, with magnificent tracks. I'’m glad they still produce the synthesizer sound. With all the many other different productions these days, a relief for your ears. Surely they can make other styles of music, but I think that they make this better than other sounds.

Well it's really hard to review this album because it is really good. Composition, synth parts, even vocals made in (most of them taken from movies) old good LD and KOTO style.

Such tracks like "Journey in My Mind", "Imminent Attack", "Into Oblivion", "Virus" (I think this tune is more close to Koto) are amazing. Nothing more u must listen and only then u understand me.

But... where're always will be "but"... but can't say anything good about this track "From The Sun" - some "classic" music intro and happy electronic with some Spacesynth elements. It is very hard to say, that this tune is Spacesynth. And i think it not fit to whole album.

And I have double feelings about "Silverstar" - synth parts are ok. But intro part which repeats further, for me sound "unattractive". And in general whole composition made somehow wrong or in "hack-work" style

Some notice: "Intro", "Martian Storm", "Sonic Mission" was taken from Rygar album. So in conclusion, we can say that Laserdance / Koto comeback. But I can't say that is a super, album of all times, crushing album because it has some "poor" tracks.

And still there are some better albums like Laserdance "Changing times" or Protonic Storm "Epsilon".
