Self Financed
Mingle Riverside, Karma Depth, The Urbane and erh.. Spandau Ballet together, add an undefined extra ingredient and you might end up with Intentions and their debut album Place In Time.
The story of Intentions starts in 2003 when André de Vries (keys), Erik Kuipers (bass) and Sanne te Meerman (guitars) get together. The trio, then called Valence, was then looking for a vocalist and drummer, whilst already some songwriting was done by the trio. After a long period of several auditions and sessions the band found it's current line up in 2006. Ex-Mesmerised vocalist Roelof Beeftink and drummer Petrick Glasbergen joined. The band renamed themselves to Intentions. With already quite some songs written, the recording sessions for Place In Time started early 2006 and were finalized mid 2008 to get a proper release in 2009. Finally the band could ‘come out' with their music.

ASR 2009
Space rockers/ progressive rockers Eloy are back. After a 11 year hiatus the band releases Visionary which shows a great return to form. 1998's Ocean 2: The Answer was a follow-up to 1977's Ocean. In 1998 it was regarded as the bands testament. However throughout the years the interrest in the band stayed and due to it's abscence they gained a true cult status. And eleven years later, at the band's 40th birthday, Eloy's brain child and founding member Frank Bornemann was pursuaded by the rather high pressure by the still increasing fan community not only to remaster the entire back catalogue but also to release a brand new album. Bornemann contacted musicians who were in previous Eloy line-ups and after eleven years the wait for a new Eloy album is over. A dream come true for many fans...
