Brighton based Cydonia consisted of Dino Psaras, Steve Ronan and Ian Rive (Semsis).
The band was created in 1993 and released several eps in labels like Blue Room, Medium Records and Atomic Records.
"In Fear Of A Red Planet" was the only album from Cydonia and was initially released on Blue Room in 1999.
The band here offers fast, pounding industrial/psychedelic goa trance with eerie/dark sounds.
The album includes a remix version of the classic track "Colombian Necktie" of Frontline Assembly 

that was featured on the 2cd compilation "Re-Wind" and a rebuilt version of the track "Mindhunter" by Tim Schuldt.
In spring of 2003 the album was digitally re-mastered and re-released

on Avatar's sublabel Pro File, with a re-designed CD cover.
DJ Dino Psaras, the main figure in Cydonia, is considered to be one of the most familiar

and influential DJs in the psytrance scene, especially in the 90s.
