International melodic rock group Khymera have made the track \u2018The Rhythm Of My Life\u2019 available for streaming, which can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Khymera issued fifth full-length studio album Master Of Illusions<\/em> on March 6th, 2020 through Frontiers Music Srl.<\/p>\n

Frontman Dennis Ward commented: \u201cI started writing in 2017, but it was a slow process. I first tried collaborating with a pair of songwriters but it didn\u2019t work out. I was actually having a very hard time trying to write the songs I was looking for. Fortunately, I was offered one song from Michael Palace that became \u2018After All This Time\u2019 and shortly after that I collaborated with Michael Klein (guitars), Eric Ragno (keyboards), Pete Newdeck (drums) and Jean Funes (of Silent Tiger). Everything then fell into place pretty quickly and I was able to finalise melodies and lyrics and complete the recordings.\u201d<\/p>\n

“One of my personal favourites is \u2018Rhythm Of My Life\u2019,\u201d he continued. \u201cNot only because I like it, but because it was the last song I wrote. The lyrics are kind of summing up my life routine and my work as an artist and music producer and how I believe that, no matter how stuck one can get, if you just allow things to happen they will. Hence also the song \u2018Just Let It Happen\u2019, which is another favourite because of the lyrics and also the mesmerising atmospheric soundscape in the background. I had fun writing and playing that one! \u2018Paradise\u2019 is another favourite because I literally had the whole song written, including most of the lyric, in less than a working day. I think it has a catchy chorus and a good message.\u201d<\/p>\n
