Born in the north of germany in 1950; he dedicated his life to cosmic space music everysince he knew such thing as music exists and he is looked upon as a pioneer of electronic music. In the early 70ies he discovered the syntheziser to be his instrument to realize his visions of space music. He was a recoding artist on the legendary albums "Alpha Centauri" (1971) and "Zeit" (1972) with the masters of TANGERINE DREAM. Followed by recordings on the "Seven Up" album, the psychedelic recording with the presence of Timothy Leary done with the band ASHRA TEMPEL he hit straight off into the psychedelic universe and travelled around the world. Times of ongoing technical developments in the aerea of elcetronic music as well as study of the concepts of music, led with Gene Gross to the foundation of the band AUGENSTERN, which created some very beautiful producations like "Strahlen", "Blütenklang" released on MC and a selection on CD "Best of Augenstern", wich where very succesful in the New Age scene around the world. A new chapter arised, when he met HANS COUSTO, the author of the Cosmic Octave in 1987. He got aquainted with the concept of sphere harmony and he started to create music that was in resonance with the astronomical vibrations of the planets of our solar system. The 2 CD album "Klänge Bilder Welten - Stars, Sounds & Colors" presented the different tunes of the earth and the moon and the follow up album "Sun - Spirit of Cheops", which transfered the harmonic structures of the pyramid of cheops in relationship with the basic tuning of the sun was a milestone within the genre cosmic music. Steves connection with the new age scene got even more intense, when he did the serial "Music for Breathing" together with Fritz Dobretzberger, also a creator within the inner circle of the COSMIC OCTAVE. Under the name STARSOUNDS PROJECT they realised the translation of astronomical horoscopes into music. Close to 50 individual symphonies derived from that cooperation, Steve´s way into the global world as a cosmic musican reached a furher level when he met the gong musican Jens Zygar in 1989. Both were fascinated by the topic of the COSMIC OCTAVE and they together began to cooperate under the name of STAR SOUNDS ORCHESTRA. Check: http://www.schroyder.de/
