BREAKING NEWS: Frontiers Music Srl is very pleased to announce the launch of a new musical partnership between singer Anette Olzon and producer/songwriter/guitar player Jani Liimatainen for a new studio album, which will see release on the label in 2017.Anette is mostly known for being the immaculate voice on hit albums from Nightwish such as “Dark Passion Play†and “Imaginaerumâ€. Jani has recently been busy in Cain's Offering alongside Stratovarius singer Timo Kotipelto, but left a deep mark on the minds of all power metal fans thanks to his time in Sonata Arctica. They are now working together on a record which promises to be a huge statement in the European metal scene for years to come!Jani says, "I have always been a big fan of Anette's voice and when the opportunity to work with her arose, writing and producing an album, it was something I just couldn't say no to! It has been a blast working on the songs already and I can't wait for the final result, this will be epic! The songs will be extremely melodic and to the point. My goal has been to write catchy songs with hooks that will haunt your dreams, and I think it's pretty much "mission accomplished". Stay tuned for something special!"Anette adds, “I am so looking forward to sing on an album with Jani and to finally work with Frontiers. I believe it will be a perfect match and I am really happy that Jani and Frontiers asked me to do this with them!â€Frontiers President Serafino Perugino concludes, “I originally envisioned the musical alliance between those two musical giants and the fact that they liked the concept proposed makes me incredibly proud! Working with two high class musicians like Jani and Anette is a true honor and we will do our complete best to please them and to release a record which will make all the melodic and power metal fans very happy!â€Frontiers looks forward to releasing this record in mid to late 2017!
So about my coming album with Jani Liimatainen I´ve just gotten the first demo song and will start to record the songs soon=) First is always that process of checking the good keys for me to sing in and I love internet and that we can make music so easy without even having to travel these days. Just sending the songs and discussing them via e-mails. Dont we all love modern techonologies?=)I really like the first song and I know the album will be amazing so exciting times ahead!
Got a new song from Jani today and this one I am sure you´ll like! Faster, heavier and a little bit like my former band.Longing to go to the studio to record this!Love and lightAnette
Well, news about my album with Jani hitting the streets next year is that I´ve gotten some songs and it sounds so promising! Jani sure knows how to write songs!Tonight I´m hitting the studio to start working on them and feel them out=)The songs are both heavy metal ones mixed with some easier rock songs and I must say there are pure elements from both Janis Sonata-times and my NW-times so if you like those bands you´ll probably like this album!Love and light,Anette
Yesterday I was in the studio again recording for the album with Jani and we recorded another great up tempo song, me and Niclas=) Tomorrow I´m heading back for some more recording.
