Dilemma
Dutch/British melodic and progressive rock act Dilemma pulled a phoenix stunt on us and has risen from the ashes! For several years the band disappeared from the public eye. But behind the scenes they have been working hard on their new studio album ‘Random Acts Of Liberation’. This gem has been mixed by Rich Mouser (Spock’s Beard, Transatlantic, Neal Morse) and was released in November 2018 via Butler Records/Music On Vinyl.
Dilemma consists of founder and keyboardist Robin Z, drummer Collin Leijenaar ( Neal Morse, Dave Bainbridge, Affector, Kayak)guitarist Paul Crezee and bass player Erik van der Vlis, who all where part of Dilemma since right after the release of debut album Imbroccata in 1995. Last but not least, British guitarist/vocalist/front man Dec Burke (Frost*, Audioplastik, Darwin’s Radio) joined Dilemma in 2017 to finish the recordings of the new album.
“I’m extremely proud of this record”, says drummer/producer Collin Leijenaar about ‘Random Acts Of Liberation. “We have gone the extra mile and relied on all our experience to make all the details work – and we’ve used a lot of resources as well”, says Leijenaar with a big smile on his face. In fact the whole band actually flew from Holland (Dec Burke from England) to L.A. to work with Rich Mouser, known for his work with Spock’s Beard, The Neal Morse Band, Transatlantic and others. Leijenaar: “I’ve known Rich for a long time, through Neal Morse and my other band Affector. Rich is a genius mixer and real audio pro. We all went to his studio to make the best sounding record possible and even re-recorded some stuff there for an even better result.”
