TIMO TOLKKI's 'Return To Dreamspace' Delayed Until Next Spring - Oct. 9, 2009
Former STRATOVARIUS leader and current REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE mainman Timo Tolkki recently teamed up with fellow ex-STRATOVARIUS members Tuomo Lassila (drums), Anti Ikonen (keyboards) and Jari Kainulainen (current member of EVERGREY) to record a new album, titled "Return To Dreamspace". This means that the project's lineup is exactly the same as the one that recorded STRATOVARIUS' "Dreamspace" LP, originally released in 1994.
For legal reasons, the band's original name — PROJECT STRATO — had to be scrapped, although the album itself will still be called "Return To Dreamspace". 20 songs have been written for the project, including "Return to Dreamspace", "Digital Jesus", "Santiago", "Chevaliers De Sangreal", "Full Circle" and "Farewell No. 2". A spring 2010 release via JVC in Japan and Scarlet Records in Europe is expected.
Return to Dreamspace delayed until next spring!

Re: Return to Dreamspace delayed until next spring!
yeah, yeah, yeah we all know about those delays.
Has anyone tried to interview the drummer or the keyboardist about this album?
Well, I guess we will just have to wait alittle while longer. Metal fans do have the patience of Job after all.

Indeed. We're talking about Tolkki here and he is not one of the most stable persons. I still would love to hear what Toumo and Antti have to say.Polaris wrote:Who knows if this project will really happen?

Re: Return to Dreamspace delayed until next spring!
So, will Kuoppis be playing the drums this time as well and only credit of it going to Lassila? What was it with Lassila not playing the original Dreamspace drums? Did he hurt himself so that he couldn't or something else?

Go to Finnland and stalk Tuomo and Antti a bit! Maybe they'll tell you then! Or they'll just call the police!

Re: Return to Dreamspace delayed until next spring!
Hope this album will release soon, although not a huuuuuuuge admirer. But I think (like most of you) that "Dreamspace" is a trully masterpiece, and it should be treated with respect.
Anyway, but as it was said by many others, I think it's not going to be probable to happen (not saying it's impossible, just doubting...)
Ragehead91 seems to be the Stratopedia . He knows everything!
Willing to hear this CD

My feelings exactly. Buy it? Pssh! Borrow it? Pfft!ggonza43 wrote: Willing to hear this CD
Lets just say I'm willing to hear it. I will not violently object if it is played in my presence. :laff:
I think Return to Dreamspace is nothing but sensationalized tripe. There's no way the original feeling or sound can be recreated; its just another worthless dramatization. What's next...Visions Pt. 2? He should just stick to RR...AoA was actually a pretty good album*!

I think Jens should have this forum overhauled when he has the time. It's getting ridiculous.
It's hilarious, but still ridiculous, and is causing more harm than good.
