We cannot well express subconscious feelings, insights, déjà vu, clairvoyance and other mystical phenomena, by words. Music is another language. For the music in this album, a mystic is the main driving force, object and theme. This is a live music, simultaneously performed, under mystical influences and impressions, on several keyboards featuring the most advanced acoustic, classical and electronic instruments and sounds.
