The music from this LP is influenced by the mountains of the world and its inhabitants and combines Carpathian motives, 
deep mantras and meditative wind instruments. 
However the main role is played by the carefully programmed drums and multi-layered bass lanes which get deep into 
the listener on the dancefloor.
