The Dreamside is a rock band formed in the Netherlands in 1994. Their music is most often described as Darkwave or ethereal wave, tending to the fairy end of the spectrum, although there are also elements of shoegazing, trip hop and industrial, and even early music. They have been compared to everyone from This Mortal Coil and Tori Amos to The Gathering and Nightwish. The band was formed by Italian-Dutch singer Kemi Vita. The Dreamside recorded Pale Blue Lights, the band's debut album, pretty much solo with assistance from various musicians; it was released in 1994 to excellent reviews. To tour the album Vita recruited guitarist Fried Bruggink, who became another core member of the band. The Dreamside's next release, Nuda Veritas (1995), consisted of several dance/techno remixes of songs from their debut album. In 1996 they released their second album, Apaika, a glossier, more ethereal album than the first. Ag
