    Hey, hope you’re doing fine.
    Wanted to let you know what happened in the past few months.

    So far we receiveved great reviews without exception and it seems there’s really a growing interest in instrumental music with lots of melody which does not fit within the norm.

    Some reactions:
    … “The Outer Planes” is a virtuoso, diversified, intoxicating debut with a love for details. A little masterpiece! – Eclipsed
    …causes goose bumps, lots of details you should discover with your headphones put on – Rock Hard
    …a fulminant debut! – Babyblaue Seiten
    ...the best instrumental piece of music in years – CD Baby review
    ...some melodies are so beautiful and stirring that at certain parts I really had tears in my eyes!
    ...A COSMIC TRAIL really created something new which can’t be compared to anything else on the market - give it a try!
    ...Normally I’m not that much into instrumental stuff but THE OUTER PLANES simply blew me away!

    Our debut album “The Outer Planes” can be ordered on our page!
