Trance Project Dream Quest in the studio recording Season Three

Bantry, Co. Cork, Ireland - 04 April 2008 - Dark World International is proud to announce the members of Dream Quest have finally joined the company in Ireland and begun recording for their next release. Dream Quest's debut release, Season One, has had growing internet sales in the U.S., Canada, and the EU. After several years of silence, techno-trance fans of Dream Quest will soon have a brand new release to enjoy.

Dream Quest began as a project by several signed artists from Dark World International. Banding together to support the company through the death of father, friend, and mentor Allan Ameringer, Dream Quest's members chose to remain anonymous in the project and received credit simply as 'Navigators'. The resulting first release, Season One, is a monumental instrumental tribute to both Allan Ameringer and the creative brilliance of the Dark World artists involved.

Work on a follow-up release began almost immediately. Unfortunately for Dream Quest fans, Season Two was never completed to the band's satisfaction and remained unreleased and unheard for several years. When Dark World International moved base from North America to the EU, members of Dream Quest were unable to relocate with the company.

Now after several years of silence, the members of Dream Quest have joined Dark World International in Ireland and begun work on Season Three. As a special bonus for all Dream Quest and Dark World International fans, Dream Quest has also completed work on a remix of Deemed Psychotic's song 'The Hunter'. Dream Quest v Deemed Psychotic - hunting is available for free download at musicdownload.com.

Dark World International is proud to announce Dream Quest has relocated to Ireland and is currently in the studio recording new material. Techno-trance fans worldwide will soon have a brand new, full length release from Dream Quest to enjoy.

A contributing artist to Dark World International, Ameringer's photography has garnished awards and market interest in the United States, Canada, Netherlands, and Ireland.

A well known historical political activist, journalist, author, musician, and painter, Oscar Ameringer has long been one of Ameringer's heroes. "It's gratifying to see so many people still interested in Oscar Ameringer. I'm amazed at the amount of visitors I've seen come through www.darkworld.com looking for him. Dark World International has expanded to include information on Oscar's life, his work, and a few photos including a very rare family photo from one of my cousins.

Dark World International offers exclusive songs at CyqoMusic

Bantry, Co. Cork, Ireland - 29 February 2008 - Dark World International, a quickly growing independent label from West Cork, Ireland, is streaming tracks from their artists at www.cyqo.com that will be available nowhere else on the internet. For the first time ever, fans of Deemed Psychotic, Kylyra, Infinisynth, Milwaukee's Black Orchid, Stygian Tars, Dream Quest, Future Dialogue, Tor's Angst, Johnny M, Doctor When and Jam for the Dead will be able to listen to their favourite songs in their entirety.

According to President Kris Ameringer, Dark World International's affiliation with CyqoMusic was a logical choice. "CyqoMusic is a relatively new music networking site, but it's growing fast. The website traffic I've seen coming in to darkworld.com from CyqoMusic is astounding. The site is easy to use, friendly, and is already posting podcasts and arranging features in hard press for their member artists. I can strongly recommend to all indie and unsigned artists to check out www.cyqo.com."

In a unique move from this highly ranked internet site, darkworld.com has added reciprocal links to CyqoMusic in several areas of their extensive website. "Our internet traffic has continually reached new record numbers in 2008," according to Kris Ameringer. "That's due in part to CyqoMusic. More importantly for Dark World International, CyqoMusic offers artists the ability to upload as many songs as they like, so we're not limited to just a few tracks like so many other places on the net. We're in the process of uploading entire releases from artists so fans can hear songs in full before they buy the album."

Dark World International is streaming exclusive tracks from their artists at CyqoMusic. Join the rest of the world in discovering Deemed Psychotic, Kylyra, Infinisynth, Milwaukee's Black Orchid, Stygian Tars, Dream Quest, Future Dialogue, Tor's Angst, Johnny M and Doctor When at www.cyqo.com.
