Half a year later followed the official limited CD-release of "Electronic Controlled Mind" on the small label SD-Image. Further followed in self-release 1998 the tape "Injection".
At the end of the millennium Ivo Lottig joined the band Accessory. From now onwards he was a good support live as well as in the studio.

Afterwards a short production break followed in which mastermind Dirk finished a one year training as sound engineer.

Accessory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No choice, no voice - to describe
These signs are simply and clear
For the destiny of my tribe
I have seen some clouds of dust
Coloured in blanket grey
I've seen the unaccepted trust
I am a merchant with my souls
I deal with their faith
Their response is my goal
This calling makes my grace
I'm a medicine man
Their confidence was never more
Than in this confused times
They would be disappointed in me
If I don't save them from decline
I took some boundaries of time
The wheel runs on high speed
I'm the fighter against the crime
My decision is to lead
I am a merchant with my souls
I deal with their faith
Their response is my goal
This calling makes my grace
I'm a medicine man
I'm the medicine man
