Vesa has skillfully 'fused' and melted together so very many different sounds and instruments here!

It opens with percussion and sounds of water and droning sitar strings and made me think of some sort of village on the banks of the Ganges! A bird cries repetively, maybe it's a jungle fowl or some other exotic species and I can't be sure what it is but this doesn't matter because it adds to the open-air atmosphere of the piece. Some sort of motor starts up briefly and this gives an almost surreal touch to it all. All of this feels as if it's in India or somewhere in the East but then a bluesy and jazzy guitar moves the music back into the West with riffing and playing that would be at home in an American jazz club. Keys continue this theme but a very tribal percussion reminds you of a different culture and a different part of the world. The blend is fascinating, intoxicating and mysterious, slightly cacophonic at times but always musical enough to hold you in its spell. The modern and the primitive, the high tech and the low, the electronic and the acoustic, the synthetic and the organic are all mixed in a delicious cocktail of eclectic influences. This is rootsy music with a big difference, this is organic jazz with oriental spice and I've been playing it and replaying it over again!
