The 4th Spacelord Reinhold Pape (flute) came into the band in May 2008. His precise and groovy bass playing makes The Spacelords' style possible. After more than 20 years playing the guitar, he began on the bass guitar in 2006. Marcus, who's traveling to west Africa since 1991, to study traditional rhythms, but is also into psychedelic music for over 25 years, Matthias, influenced by his trips to India since the seventies and playing his guitar for more than 3 decades, and Klaus, who first started 1978 in Russia as a drummer, but then changed soon to his favorite instrument - the guitar. As the ideas came so quick and the feeling was there from the first moment, it was clear: Even each of them had his own personal style and background, they had found a common sense in music. Matthias and Klaus already had a few song-ideas and after a couple of weeks almost half of the first CD was arranged. The SPACELORDS started in April 2008, when Marcus Schnitzler (drums, djembe, percussion, special effects) joined Matthias Wettstein (guitars) and Klaus Werz (bass) for a first session.
