Dreamlab (Mythos album)
Encyclopedia
Dreamlab is an album by the German
band Mythos
. It was released in 1975 on the Kosmische Musik label and featured a new line-up of the band.
Similar to the works of several other fellow artists on the same label, the album develops a science fiction
concept around the story of an extraterrestrial
visitor on a journey to Earth. Dreamlab is predominantly made up of peaceful and relaxed music. The metre is often determined by echoes from flutes and guitar riffs backed by expansive Mellotron
arrangements. The song "Expeditions" was used as the soundtrack for the film Die Superspinne.
