Ntylo bird sounds setting the scene with vocal interlude imitating natures atmospheric gentle sound streams.
Angels in the sky draws you into the sound-scaped fabric as opposed to merely listening to it, just like religion the opium of the masses.
Rustlers man the beat takes you on a journey through African beatfabric right to the hole in the wall at Rustlers Valley.
Sikadelik IAfrica the beat makes you feel the debt of human emotion.
Sabila to sweat a lovely and smooth sound fabric that makes you long for the African sun
Amayeza medicine is like the gentle flow of an unspoilt river providing nourishment for the soul.
Ila Ilo a traditional Sangoma (witchdoctor) song, which joyfully audio-acts with folklore traditions and demonstrates African believes such as e.g. the tokoloshe
The Crow is a funky tech-trance tune composed in the Ceres mountains.
Hipnotic guaranteed to keep the hippies hypnotized, with vocals flanging across the soundscape- tech-trance style.
Something a somewhat flapdoodle start soon makes place for a solid bass driven technoid grooveline.
Bonus track- down by the river evokes the imagery of sitting in nature, slow downtempo guitar driven track guranteed to awaken you gently on a sunny day.
(Total playing time 64.50)
