The same year 1998 finds the project renewed and a strong core of musicians is consisted -musicians who compose music based on the aesthetic and theoretical border of ancient hellenic music.One year later,a co-operation gradually changes the course of the band. We are referring to the meeting between Daemonia Nymphe and Nikos Brass , an instrument constructor who has managed to reproduce almost every ancient hellenic instrument by using his artistic skills, starting over from the year 1980 up to nowadays. Daemonia nymphe ,Nikos Brass and his assistants consist of a team in which the musicians are inspired and create with Lyre ,Kithara,Varvitos, and the constructors improve and make the instruments as perfect as possible.Within this co-operation , Daemonia Nymphe played their first concert -presentation of the instruments at the Medieval Festival of Rethymno, Crete. More concerts followed at the Interbalkan European Medical Center, in Tsagarada Pilio and N. Ionia of Volos . Along side they release their first mini Cd entitled “Tyrvasia” . The next big step in their course becomes reality in 2002 by signing a contract with French Label Prikosnovenie. This record label co-operates with bands from all over the world and Daemonia Nymphe as the first hellenic band in that label has become a vibrant member of Prikosnovenie’s big international company.In September 2002 , Daemonia nymphe release their new Cd under the homonymous title ,an album where a plethora of musicians participate besides the basic core of the band, among them a famous Greek singer Alkinoos Ioannides.In that new Cd the band moves towards into new paths , in a different more recognised sound because the majority of the tracks are played by the replicas of the ancient hellenic instruments . In December 2002 they released a cd which the band co-operates with other Prikosnovenie acts such as Louisa John Krol , Francesco Banchini(Gor, Ataraxia) and Lys, in a Cd which is entitled Love Sessions. The same period they participated in the new cd of atmospheric band from London , Seventh Harmonic as well in the debut Cd Arcane Elitism by symphonic neoclassical project xArkanex from Athens.
