Richard van Kruysdijk (Sonar Lodge, Phallus Dei) and Niels Van Hoorn (The Legendary Pink Dots) hooked up in 2004 and produced 2 LP’s (“Rorschach” and “Rorschach II”), which were later released on CD (“Everything Is Closer”) by SPV / Big Blue in 2006.
Two promotional tours through Europe that year brought them headlining in nine countries. SA proved the perfect vehicle for their musical ideas and became their main focus amongst their many projects. They will embark on another European Tour in November 2007.
Strange Attractor works with some legendary guest vocalists and musicians: Edward Ka-Spel, Winston Tong, David J, Richard Sinclair, Marie-Claudine Vanvlemen, Peter Christopherson, Graham Lewis…

NIELS VAN HOORN
is a longstanding member of the English / Dutch cult group The Legendary Pink Dots. Their unusual mixture of electronic psychedelic whimsy and lush textures straight out of Alice In Wonderland have kept them on top of the underground cult music scene for already a quarter of a century. Niels, who always coloured outside the dotted line, reached an important milestone with his first solo album Colours (out in autumn 2002 on Soleilmoon USA). Over the years, Niels has also worked with a wide range of performers: drum & bass outfit Voltage, Dead Voices On Air (Mark Spybey of Zoviet France & Download), The Tear Garden (Edward Ka-Spel and Skinny Puppys Cevin Key), Lydia Lunch, Anubian Lights, Szense a.m.m.
Niels plays soprano-, tenor-, bariton- and bass saxophone, bass clarinet, flute, Steiner wind synth and electronics.

This is another case of 2 artists mixed-up. The first is the project of Niels Van Hoorn (The Legendary Pink Dots) with Richard Van Kruysdijk & Marie-Christine Vanvlemen (both Sonar Lodge). The have 2 albums : Rorschach & Everything is closer. The second one is Jonathan Sharp, aka Spacetime Continuum. Discogs even has 2 other artists with this name, so possibly even more mixed-up.
