[EDIT: the guessing game is over, and the answer is here.]
Hi Ayreonauts!
Today’s post answers an email question sent in by Josh:
…I am really excited for this record! Can I ask if Arjen has employed any instruments for this record that he hasn’t used before? For example, we heard a didgeridoo on The Human Equation which was a great touch.
Thanks for the question, Josh! The short answer to your question is yes. As usual, Arjen is going to have guest musicians on the next Ayreon. Some of them have already started recording, and one of them just happens to be an instrument that Arjen’s never used before.
Here is a little snippet.
