Warmest Holiday Wishes!!!

About Me


TO ALL OF YOU FROM ALL OF US:br A HAPPY HOLIDAY AND A WONDERFUL 2008!!!!
The wait is over! We're very happy to introduce the video clip for the song 'Beautiful'. So here it is... enjoy!
Click HERE to see the video in high resolution and don't forget to visit our YouTube for more videos and live clips.
Dial started in the fall of 2003 as a forum for musical expression between Rommert van der Meer, Liselotte Hegt and Kristoffer Gildenlow.
The general idea was to make music, any kind of music.
It didn't have to fit with anything or be categorized; just making music.
After a while, ideas became more serious and complete songs were formed.
Early 2005 there was a first demo, recorded in a home environment, using drum machines and sequencers.
In late 2005 DIAL started seriously consider making an album.
Early 2006 DIAL got in touch with musician/producer Devon Graves (Dead Soul Tribe) and after hearing a newer version of the demo (re-recorded and re-mixed early 2006) he was happy to help out with producing the début album of DIAL.
The album was recorded at Dead Soul Temple (Austria) in June/July 2006.
The rest is future!
