it suddenly and quite unexpectedly became finished last autumn.

Denis Blackham at Skye Mastering gave
the recordings a real touch of magic and we are completely happy with the final shape and sound of everything.

Thanks go out to Naoko Suzuki who gave some vocals to two tracks and to Vikki
Jackman for her inimitable piano playing on track #11 'Mirages'.
