Differences is a Dutch band of which few records have survived into the digital age, to the point where even the release year of their initial album appears to be mired in a haze of confusion. But the arguably most reliable sources indicate that the production in question, The Voyage, appeared in 1985. Initially issued as a vinyl LP on short-lived indie label Frizz Bee, then reissued on CD 6 years later by then fledgling Dutch label SI Music. Differences stand exactly on the thin line between the fading 70's Symphonic Rock stylings and the emerging Neo Prog trends of the 80's, leaning slightly towards the first style. The 75'-77' Genesis seem to be their strongest influence with a bit of second-wave Teutonic aura in the process akin to Anyone's Daughter and Rousseau and, of course, some reasonable Marillion echoes in the more haunting moments. The music though is mostly soft, performed rather in a romantic symphonic style, featuring smooth melodies on guitars and atmospheric synthesizers. The guitar work contains much of Steve Hackett's trembling techniques but also some convincing Camel/Anyone's Daughter-like solos with a deep melodic content. The tracks are quite long and the arrangements are pretty nice, even if Differences avoid any serious interplays and focus on atmospheric, elaborate compositions with both lyrical and instrumental variety. It seems that a dash of higher energy is needed in the most of the tracks, but this will come with the emphatic epic ''The melody'', clocking at 17 minutes, and offering a very British-styled Progressive Rock with heavy Marillion overtones in the keyboard passages and again some impressive Genesis orientations in the symphonic textures. Absolutely great and well-composed piece of classic Prog.
One more production would be assembled by this band before they disbanded. But while their initial album was one distinctly influenced by 70's symphonic progressive rock, their sophomore effort A World of Difference from 1992 had more of an emphasis on mainstream oriented, radio friendly music of the pop/rock variety.
