2009 saw the international release of HIGH WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM, the debut by Carlos Niño & Friends. It was a record that featured, what Niño refers to as, "collage compostions." He used material from recording sessions and live concerts by his other ensembles, including Build An Ark and The Life Force Trio, as sound source for songs. He would then work with various collaborators on developing the pieces . . .

In front of you is the new record by Carlos Niño & Friends, entitled AQUARIUSSSSSSS. This project finds Niño back to work, sampling, looping, editing, and processing recordings he's made of himself playing various instruments, and recordings of ensembles that he leads. The feel is more ambient and new age than the first, and plays like a soundtrack to a film of psychedelic visual music, for exploration, reflection, meditation and relaxation.
