"Imagine Ozric Tentacles at lesser speed and less techno, then you're almost there. Added to the mix are some Tangerine Dream references and early Pink Floyd space resemblances." – by Raimond Fischbach at SFTW (UK) (May 2015).

Artistic collaboration has always been a key issue for rock music. Armed with the ability to create music in home studios and then to exchange tracks via internet, rock musicians began to experiment with new, more complex forms of artistic interaction. Ilya Lipkin (of THE RE-STONED) and brothers Ark and Ivan Fedotov (both of VESPERO) first met on stage in Moscow in 2013 during the Vespero’s tour: Ilya made guest appearance at one of the band’s gig. Ark, Ivan and Ilya were attracted to something in the others, and started to exchange their musical views and ideas through the web. In December 2014, Ilya was invited to Astrakhan, a hometown of Ark and Ivan to try new tunes by the three on stage. That memorable concert was a total public success, and a new band was born – instrumental psychedelic-space-rock trio MAAT LANDER featuring Ilya Lipkin (guitars, effects), Ark Fedotov (bass, synths), and Ivan Fedotov (drums, effects).
