Tobias Sammet comments: “Michi Kiske is not only a good friend of more than 20 years, he has been with AVANTASIA right from the beginning. His singing inspires me when I compose songs, and while finalizing the writing for a duet with him, it always ends up in a very powerful missile like ‘The Inmost Light’. The sound is in my DNA. It always was an important component of my songwriting, and maybe that is the reason our voices form a strong unit together.
“It is always a challenge to work and sing with this kind of expert. You have to put a lot of effort into it in order to not secede.
“Michi‘s singing and the sound of early HELLOWEEN influenced my career.
“I wrote ‘The Inmost Light’ in the wake of just throwing everything overboard which would not be essential. I wanted to deliver a short and tight rocket.”
The “The Inmost Light” video is a recap of AVANTASIA’s career so far. It’s an emotional ride that takes us all the way back to the roots of the project.
