An impressive album, which is mixture of Tobias Meggles Pop past and
his love of modern electronic music. During month of work a dual
concept was developed, according to which the instrumental and vocal
tracks were arranged, mixed down and mastered. This concept of two
different albums as part of a package has grown out of his listening
pleasures: which do you prefer, vocals or instrumental music?

Tobias Meggle: "I find that for example electronic instrumental music
is unsuitable in the morning, yet as the day progresses and evening
approaches, it becomes all the more more easy to listen to. Vocals I
find suitable at any time of the day, but without paying attention to
the vocals, which I find very hard to do, one loses the gist of the
track."

This is why the album has been split into two, instrumental and vocal
version. The powerful, multifaced and expressionistic vocals of
Antoinette Trerlinckx work brilliantly. It is very difficult to
describe the style of the album, therefore all we can do is to invent
another genre; "Electronic Soul" However enough of the rambling:
listen and enjoy.
