In "Beyond Space Without Limits", released in late 2012, we have a musician Beto Vazquez that brings all the magic of their Epic / Symphonic Metal songs where Heavy Rock, Gothic and classical music merge to give life to compositions, thanks to the quality of guest artists, vocalists or instrumentalists either make every track becomes a different experience. You can highlight the strong start with "Within my Madness" with Santiago Burgi as the main male voice Beto Vazquez Infinity, or very interesting "XaraX", owner of a vocal by the beautiful voice of Magdalena Lee lines (Tears of Magdalena). It is important to show the new version of "Soldiers of Hope", the work of Luis Margarittini on flutes and keyboards Santi Toselli, together with the work of tenor Dario Schmunk that give this known issue new nuances to appreciate it. We must highlight the work of Pablo Soler on guitars in the song "Again", as well as orchestral arrangements of Lucas Pereyra (excelling in "Threshold", with the participation of Italian singer Iliour Griften). And for all those who ask for the return of Jessica Lehto, the Swedish vocalist, which interprets splendidly "Goddess of the Sea" and the song that gives title to the album. Then comes the final song, an extensive composition of more than twelve minutes reviewing all that has been the album here. Variety is the main raw material, leading to an enormous amount of distinguishable moments together, that clearly speak of the also huge variety of musical influences in the mind of Beto Vazquez. In fact, the song is divided into ten different parts, each with its subtitle and a handful of features that makes it stand out. The home, called Beyond Space Without Limits, makes the same title and registration appropriates sense. And it really is like to be drifting through space, an aspect in which Beto synthesizers are fundamental and certainly do their work. Then we return to more mundane sounds of ancient airs and classic, where the flute Luis Margarittini is vital, as acoustic guitars. The delicate voice of Jessica Lehto fits well with the theme, because it is a soft passage, which emphasizes the details and finesse over power. What comes then continues to draw attention, but positively, as a faint cello gives way to a short saxophone solo it appears. All this to give rise to the magnificent irruption of Santiago Burgi, which gives clear and convincing they may sound powerful even if the lyrical song used samples. That's right, using its extremely powerful and dramatic tenor voice, Santiago gives one of the most brilliant flashes of the plate. Why it works? I think it's because it supports and sustains while the rest of the music. They are on the same page, it does not sound out of place. The issue continues to progress and gives another pleasant surprise: the participation of Chilean Jason Droguett, whose sharp timbre and aggressive voice merges with the first electric guitars and riffs add a weight that require voice chord. There comes into play Jason, which delivers precisely that. Then the song begins a decline in intensity until it reaches its term, ending turn to drive. Excellent song. We can say that the songs have a slightly heavier darker tone and comparing them with previous work. An album that shows consistency and showing us that Beto Vazquez Infinity will achieve highest points in their work.
