MICHAEL
SCHINKEL’S ETERNAL FLAME style
is inspired by the 80’s and 90’s (YNGWIE
MALMSTEEN, RAINBOW and DEEP
PURPLE).
After
the first two albums “Desire” (1998
– Point
Music & Dreamchaser
Records) and “King of the King”
(2002 – MTM
Music) it was the end of Eternal Flame.
Michael Schinkel (singer and guitarist) and Helmut Kohlpaintner (keyboard
player, bassist) decided to work as composers and producers for other musicians
and bands and founded the company “enooma-media
musicproduction” in Munich. Again and again they received calls,
letters and e-mails from fans, with the request to produce a new Eternal
Flamealbum. It then started in 2012. Helmut Kohlpaintner and
Michael Schinkel discussed the project and quickly found partners for lyric
writing such as Timothy
Touchton (known by lyrics such as “Go for Gold”
Olympics in Seoul 1988, “Sail
Away” Joe Cocker as well
as 11 Top 40 and 3 top 5 hits). The album was created by further guests such
as Mark
Boals (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen and Ring of Fire)
and Göran
Edman (ex-Yngwie
Malmsteen & John Norum). Other
musicians such as Thomas
Keller (bass) and Robert Lipp(bass)
from past Eternal
Flame days as well as the drummer Michael
Hencky also shared their know how.
