This album was released in 1975 by Jan Hammer, a keyboardist/synthesizer player who shows different faces on each album: jazz, soul, rock and electronics. On this album, Jan Hammer presents a symphonic progressive rock taste, featuring Steve Kidler's violin, fusing synthesized cosmic electronic sounds with jazz, funk and classical elements. The best tracks are A1, with its spacey synthesizers and cool rhythm track with a low centre of gravity, and B1, an electric folk-jazz track with trippy synthesizer melodies and ethnic percussion.
