No backing tracks were used, only triggered loops and played instruments.

Co-produced by Barbieri, the album artfully combines Ambient and Progressive Rock influences to create a sophisticated sound that incorporates delicate atmospherics, rich melodies and hard-hitting riffs.

Fjieri member Stefano Pununzi's second solo album is a sublime mixture of exotic ballads, rich textures and Art Rock adventurism.
