This is the fourth album by Ayuo Takahashi, the son of Yuji Takahashi, one of Japan's leading contemporary musicians, who is a multi-instrumentalist who writes and arranges music, plays guitar, keyboards, and bouzouki. The album, recorded in England with the participation of Peter Hammill, Dave Mattacks and others, is a blend of Ayuo Takahashi's roots in psychedelic rock, progressive rock, new wave, ethnic music from various countries and Japanese gagaku. It's a wonderful work of art music full of storytelling and originality that unfolds throughout. The consistent psychedelic world view is common to all the works.
