Join a meditative journey through unknown landscapes from rainforest wilderness to mountain highlands. This 40 min cinematic ambient album has been a long trip in itself for the 4 musicians as the music has been created through improvised maraton-concerts, curated as different challenges from playing 9 hours straight with no breaks to playing 4 times 1 hour in 1 day. Four musicians with very different backgrounds ranging from rock and hip hop to experimental freejazz wanted to experience how this kind of physical and mental challenge influences creativity and music. Would they come closer to transcending, would they get a stronger connection between them, or would the challenges reveal things in themselves and their musical practice that they did not know of before? An enormous amount of material has been listened to, selected, edited and produced, but with the dogma of no overdubs. Enjoy listening!
