Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally recorded in 1980, this remarkably forward-thinking project from Riccardo Sinigaglia and Walter Maioli bridges ancient ethnic instrumentation with modular synthesizers. The resulting tribal-electronic fusion significantly anticipated the rise of 90s worldbeat and ambient global music.
