The Dark Calling.

Bloodbound, eine der typischen schwedischen Power Metal Bands, die aus dem scheinbar unerschöpflichen Reservoir an erfolgreichen Acts der skandinavischen Länder stammt, beehren uns kurz vor der Jahreshälfte mit ihrem neunten Album. Die 2004 von Gitarrist Tomas Olsson gegründete Kapelle agiert in ihrer 17-jährigen Geschichte unbeirrt in den Power Metal Gefilden und ist mit eines der erfolgreichen Acts bei Frontiers. Mit den „Kreaturen des Dunklen Reiches“ lassen sie den Zuhören teilhaben an fantastischen Wesen, die mit epischen Melodien besungen werden.

Film, television, and video game music composer Daniel Pemberton got his start in avant-garde and ambient electronic music, influenced as a teenager by statuesque electronic artists such as Jean Michel Jarre, Tomita, and Vangelis. Pemberton began collecting keyboard gear at an early age and wrote a tips column for a video game magazine to earn enough money for increasingly high-end equipment. He also began recording his own compositions, and passed a tape on to Mixmaster Morris at one of his gigs. When word (as well as additional tapes) continued to spread, Pemberton recorded his debut album, Bedroom, which gained release in late 1994 for Pete Namlook's highly collectible Fax Records. The Mixmaster Morris connection also led to work for Coldcut's Ninja Tune label, including a DJ Vadim remix released on the latter's U.S.S.R. Reconstruction LP.
