According to Mark, 14 songs have already been writen for the follow up to Design Your Universe (2009). Here's what Mark had to say about the music: "I think they are on the line of Desing The Universe because we were really happy with the style of that album. Also many fans asked us to keep this style because they also enjoyed a lot that album. But we always do whatever feels good. I think it won't be a big step in a different direction but we always try to add some new elements."
Mark has also revealed that the band has some plans for its tenth anniversary: "For sure, we want to record a DVD for that event. We're looking to the possibility to get the orchestra from Hungary and do a big show. Also, we would like to release the DVD the fans asked for but never got from The Classical Conspiracy. Then we are going to do a new show with some new classical songs as well. And hopefully this time we can make a DVD out of it. It's all plans, we still have to discuss and work it out. Basically that's the rough idea."
