    A month after the release of the first album of EXTINCT STAR CLUSTER , Simon O. decided to publish the continuation of " Nomads of the Star Cluster ".   This new album is called " SETTLERS OF THE STAR CLUSTER ", and it is actually the second part of " Nomads ", since both albums were written as an only long full length. Later, Simon decided to split it into two parts, instead of releasing a double album.   As his predecesor, " SETTLERS OF THE STAR CLUSTER " has no lyrics and the interstellar journey topic remains as the concept..

It's called " NOMADS OF THE STAR CLUSTER ". It's an instrumental piece, consisting in 7 tracks of guitar dark ambient.   Despite not having lyrics, the track names and atmosphere is inspired in the interstellar journey topic, a topic explored many times in the classics of the science fiction literature.
