In a few words:
This album is a real time machine. Believe me, when you will listen to it you will think that you are somewhere in the Middle East, many centuries ago. It is a very strange and mysterious album, but it is worth-listening. There are many ethnic instruments that enhance its mysterious atmosphere. Most compositions are instrumentals, with quite "rich" orchestration. The mastermind behind this project is Peter Lindahl, who is influenced by Turkish popular music, songs of the Middle East, Greek Rebetiko and Indian classical music (as he says in his site). It should be highlighted, that the album was sold out and never re-released, so it cannot be found in a music shop. In general, the album is a unique trip. Enjoy it!
