'''35007''' was a band from the Netherlands. Forming in 1991 (though some sources state they date back to the 1980s) this band exuded a mostly instrumental (and by 1999 an entirely instrumental) sound meshing trance, groove, stoner rock, psychedelic rock and space rock, with themes based in space exploration and nature. The band is also known for their enigmatic nature and rarely performing live though 35007 would provide a visual show to compliment their live music for a true multimedia/multi-sensory experience. The band was heavily influential to Europe's stoner and psychedelic scene along with being a key band in the formations of [[Roadburn Festival]].
