HOMEPAGE

Born in Sweden, ANDERS HELMERSON started out studying classical music in Demark and Sweden. He became interested in Progressive music, and dabbled in some recording while in Stockholm. After school he spent three yars on his debut. The result was 1981's "The End of Illusion." It failed to take off, so he did. Canada was his next stop, but success was still elusive. Disheartened, in 1987 he returned to Sweden and entered medical school. During this time, there was new interest in "The End of Illusion." It was on its way to cult status, so Helmerson cut a re-release deal with Musea in 1995. Still, he did not return to music. While serving as a ship's doctor, he discovered Rio de Janeiro. This is where he finally found a home. It also inspired renewed interest in music. He signed with Brazilian prog label Som Interior, and released "Fields of Inertia" in 2002.

Exploring music or any kind of art, is a journey into the unconscious, a world of symbols, landscapes and abstract frame works. It is a great wonder to be there and you'd like to stay forever and be a part of it. But at one point you will find your self at the other side and you have to abandon the landscape you painted - The End of Illusion. You have to step out on the other side and face reallity. But on your way there experience grew you wise and prepared you to better understand the complexity of the real world.
