The links below give more details about each track and offer to download the tracks separately ; but you can use the little player button on this page to listen to the music :

  • Indian Mood on Thethys begins with a long guitar improvisation. Then, the Udu and distant bells opens a ryhtmic path for a Koto chorus, and the track finally quotes John Mc Laughlin’s “Lotus Feet” before fading into an exotic ambient soundscape.

  • Dawn In the Snow is about a raising icy snow storm in the night and a shelter of warmth and light like a dawn in dark, snow covered forests. Harsh electronic effects are cleared with warm strings and a voice theme, then a synth chorus over Udu ryhtm can take place before fading into the snowy trees.

  • Elsewhere starts and ends with a cosmic drone fading into pads and foreign rythms of Water Drums and Udus. Sounds of tibetan horns and space effects enhance a distant distorted guitar chorus, before dancing electronic rythms establish themselves for a very vintage synth chorus.
