BAND: Richard Andersson's Space Odyssey

Biografie

Richard Anderssons SPACE ODYSSEY project was formed by Richard Andersson and guitar player Magnus Nilsson. After the two having a dinner they decided to do something together and the guiding principles were set. Richard and Magnus have known each other for years but never got together in studio. Richard describes Magnus as: One among the best guitar players I have ever played with. Extremely good sense for music in general, which you can hear by his huge vibrato and great felling for the guitar. I´m Very happy to introduce him to you and the metal scene.

As Richard composed the songs and Magnus recorded the pre-production they both thought it could be fun to work with well-known musicians, since it more was like a project. Very soon well known Marcel Jacob (bass) and Patrik Johansson (vocals) were contacted and introduced to the material. Marcel with a history in Yngwie Malmsteen´s Rising Force. Pre-production CDs were sent to the different musicians and recordings took place. Richard´s friend Jonas Reingold introduced Zoltan Csörsz to him. Zoltan´s got this fusion/metal touch in his drumming and that´s very suitable for this kind of music, since there are different parts including these elements.
