The ART OF INFINITY story

“In October 1996, Thorsten Sudler-Mainz and Thorsten Rentsch travelled to a house on the Dutch coast. In their luggage they carried a selection of instruments and the vision of a unique ambient music-project called ART OF INFINITY.”

This proved to be the foundation stone for the debut album New Horizon released in 2000. On this album ART OF INFINITY demonstrated its characteristic musical elements such as electronic, chant-like female vocals and real played instruments for the first time.

The two masterminds of ART OF INFINITY are musicians and producers who realise and supplement their ideas and concepts by adding guest musicians. Thorsten Sudler-Mainz is responsible for most of the compositions. He plays keyboards, sings and brougt the style of Spoken Words to ART OF INFINITY. Thorsten Rentsch composes, plays keyboards, guitar and bass. He is responsible for the overall sound. He worked as a sound engineer with many national and international artists.

In January 2004 ART OF INFINITY signed a contract with the renowned German company BSC Music. After the worldwide success of the second ART OF INFINITY album Dimension Universe (2004), the third album Endless Future (2008) was released on the BSC main label Prudence too.

While their first album New Horizon deals with the subject of genesis and evolution, the listener is going on an endless journey into space on the second album Dimension Universe. The new album Endless Future once again deals with ancient topics and archaic dreams of mankind.

The third concept album of ART OF INFINITY completes a harmonious trilogy. With their ambitious music they become accepted as the creators of the "New School Ambient".
