Timo Tolkki

Mah...

Per me questo è scoppiato di nuovo, situazione poco chiara, ma istintivamente sto dalla parte di Conti.

 

A quanto pare, ha annullato il tour sudamericano con Conti, via email, quando Conti era già sul posto.

E ora sta attaccando Conti di dire il falso etc.

 

Spiace dirlo, ma Timo non ci sta dentro proprio...

PRESS RELEASE:
They started it all 34 years ago...The Dreamspace lineup of Stratovarius has reformed, returning under the moniker TIMO TOLKKI'S STRATO. Featuring Timo Tolkki (vocals & guitar), Tuomo Lassila (drums), and Antti Ikonen (keyboards), these members recorded the classic Fright Night, Twilight Time, Dreamspace and Fourth Dimension albums. Released in 1994, Dreamspace was the last Stratovarius album to have Timo Tolkki on lead vocals and includes such fan favorites as "Chasing Shadows", "Hold On To Your Dream", "We Are The Future" and "Wings Of Tomorrow". Tolkki recorded his vocals for the Fourth Dimension album demos before deciding to focus on guitar only and recruited Timo Kotipelto as vocalist. Fourth Dimensionincluded a number of standout tracks including "Against The Wind", "Distant Skies", "Galaxies" and "Twilight Symphony".
In the summer 2022 Timo Tolkki, Tuomo Lassila and Antti Ikonen met to discuss ideas to reform the original line up, deciding to call themselves “Timo Tolkki’s Strato”. In all secrecy, they have rehearsed in Tuomo’s garage (real back to the roots!) since January 2023.This reconstituted lineup has signed a deal with Warner Music Japan, and is currently recording their debut album titled Return To Dreamspace to be released on 27.10.2023, preceded by the single “(Is this the) Brave New World?". A Japanese Tour is planned for spring 2024, and Timo Tolkki will visit Japan in November 2023 to promote the album -- his first time there since 2007. Tours of Latin America and Europe are also in the works. In concert the band will be performing songs from Return To Dreamspace, as well as from the Stratovarius albums, Fright Night,Twilight Time, and Dreamspace.
Eric Cerda, the manager of Timo Tolkki, describes the music as "sounding like the classic Dreamspace era but updated for the 2020's. Fans of melodic Power Metal -- a genre that these guys pretty much defined -- will love the new songs of Timo Tolkki's Strato, with fans of early Stratovarius being especially pleased.”
Tuomo Lassila formed Stratovarius in Helsinki 1984, and is responsible together with the original guitar player Staffan Stråhlman for the band's name Stratovarius. One year later Timo Tolkki joined the band. Stratovarius released their debut album Fright Night (1989) through CBS Finland. From that started one of the biggest success stories in the history of melodic metal. They defined what is currently known as “Power Metal” with albums like Fright Night (1989), Twilight Time (1993), Dreamspace (1994) and Fourth Dimension (1995).
Timo Tolkki wrote more than 100 songs for the band before leaving the group to embark on a successful solo career back in 2008, and is responsible for writing such Power Metal anthems like “Black Diamond”, “Hunting High and Low”, “Speed of Light”, “Paradise”, “Forever” and “Destiny”. More than 4 million copies of Tolkki-era Stratovarius albums have been sold.

Timo Tolkki's Strato, "Return To Dreamspace" fuori ad Ottobre con la formazione classica del periodo.

Molto curioso, del resto acquistai Dreamspace proprio all'uscita dopo averlo ascoltato da Marco Garavelli su Radio Peter Flowers.

 

Ho modificato il nome del topic, vista la variabilità dei progetti di Timo Tolkki.

 

Non esageriamo!

PS Preso Dreamspace all'uscita.
