Pete Mush (synths, bass, flutes, percussion), Tom Tee (guitars) and Jaro (bass) have three different drummers on this album, while Charles Sla has returned to guest on flute and they have another guest in the mighty Ed Wynne, which given their musical style makes total sense as there is no doubt that Ozrics have been the major influence on their style. Pete and Jaro have been a constant since the debut album in 2005 while Charles Sla was a full member at that time and this is their ninth studio album, the fourth I have come across, and yet again shows a band who present music in a very fluid style with no need for the interruption on vocals as the music takes us and them on a journey.
They describe their music as space trance fusion dub progrock and that is as good a description as any I guess, but it might just be easier to think of a band which has Ozrics at its core, then adds Gong and Steve Hillage, sometimes with more of a rock guitar focus, and others just drifting along on the keyboards which swirl inside the mind. This is music which is far better to be played on headphones when the listener wants to be taken on a journey as opposed to playing in the background where it can be lost. At times it can be very direct and feel there is a vision and direction they want to achieve, almost as if we are going along a motorway, while at others we are the meandering stream, taking our time and whatever path we find as we babble slowly in the landscape. They have also taken some influences from Jean Michel Jarre, putting into the melting pot and creating something which yet again is a very enjoyable album indeed.
