It is with great pleasure and happiness that we can present, after a very long time, a new collaboration with my dear friend Hilario and me. Struggling and fighting against many setbacks  which held him from making music, now Hilario found back the power to give it all, resulting in an old school rocker on the instrument he controls so well.

We hope you will enjoy this track the same as we did making this piece which Hilario initiated from an one take improvisation, handling the keys and knobs as like he never has been away.

At the start of 2025 I had the honor of playing a Sound Journey for 300+ people in Grand Teatret, the esteemed and beautiful Art Deco cinema in central Copenhagen. 
The Sound Journey is a short introduction to my principles of using music as a guide on a psychedelic journey, and was played as warm up to a special showing of Music for Mushrooms, arranged by Psykedelisk Samfund (The Danish Psychedelic Society https://psykedelisksamfund.dk/ ) together with Grand Teatret https://grandteatret.dk/
