About “Between Living & Dreaming”. (release date: April 30 - 2010 / label: Echozone) Where to start? An album release from a band that has been away from the scene for mor than a decade. An album that initially has been recorded 11 years ago… Is there any reason for that? Well yes! Since 2009, Frank Weyzig (original founder of Born for Bliss) has been moving his way back into the music scene with his contribution for ‘White Rose Transmission’, and one night, while he was working in his studio on one of the WRT tracks, he stumbled on these long forgotten B4B files on his hard drive. After playing some of the tracks, he was stunned about the freshness and the dynamics of the songs. Just one thought entered his mind… This album deserves a second chance! After recording this album with Born For Bliss in 1999, the band split up due to all kinds of problems with their former management and record company. At that time, frustrated as Frank was with the whole business, he just gave up and never found the energy to do a final effort to release the album. Shows you how things unexpectedly can take a different course! Now in 2010, under the wings of German label ECHOZONE, the album is re-mastered, neatly packaged and anxiously waiting for you! What makes this album so special, you would probably ask? Some of you may remember that Frank and Willem van Antwerpen, were former members of dutch electronic wave legend ‘Clan Of Xymox’… So undoubtedly there will be some early Xymox influences on this record as well. Remco Helbers found his way to Born For Bliss via ‘The Dreamside’, and with his very own style of playing the ‘Chapman Stick’ he adds a special dimension to the Born For Bliss sound… For the real fans it will be a surprise to listen to ‘Dragon’, one of the bonus tracks on the album. This song is a demo Frank wrote and recorded during the early Xymox period and still is one of his favorite songs and it definitely reflects the mood of that era. Another extra is his demo version of ‘Ylene’, which he wrote for ‘Love Like Blood’ for their ‘Snake Killer’ album. And then there’s also a demo version of ‘This Love’, the very last song he ever wrote for Born For Bliss… So the album is not just released after all, but also packed with extras! Frank could not leave you without giving you his view on the music scene. We all know that the music business is going through a massive change right now. Imagine this… While Frank was playing with Xymox in the mid eighties, their first album was released on vinyl. There were not even CD’s back then! The speed at which everything is changing is incredible! Nowadays, all existing music, almost everything that has ever been recorded is downloadable,legal or illegal… Is there still hope for alternative music and their creators? Frank answers the question himself with a final statement “…of course, as long as you, the fans, are willing to support your favorite artists. And as long as your favorite artists, are willing to provide you with pure and honest music…”
