Here the original first edition from the Sattva label. This time it's the group 4XANG who sings on the opener "Titaptawa". Gandalf's old friend Peter Aschenbrenner plays flute and soprano sax on this piece. The rest of the album is filled with solo music which combines electronic music, New Age and World music. It is all very typical Gandalf with beautiful synthsounds, calm rhythms and the stereotype guitar solos. In a personal style that enters both New Instrumental Music and World Music, Gandalf takes us through a voyage to faraway lands, full of emotions and adventures. Gandalf builds melodic themes of a great beauty, and some even turn out to be highly mysterious. Several pieces are dominated by a majestic, epic character, with the orchestrations typical of Classical Music and Celtic elements.
The piece "Shining Light part 1", is a cosmic-symphonic theme of an unusual grandeur. In a few words, a pleasant, melodic and very warm album, where the keyboards and the fine arrangements have a fundamental presence.
