about

The theme within which the album is shrouded was inspired by Jack Kerouac's "The Dharma Bums," the book which triggered my interest in searching for the sense of the reality by means of spiritual-oriented contemplation of life. Inspired by the aforementioned matters, I learned one of the most basic oriental scales on the guitar and subsequently decided to record several pieces which would pertain, in terms of ideology and the music itself, to the never-ending labours of seeking for the ultimate knowledge.
