The second album from this band from Spain.
The band was a seven piece big band with a lineup of congas, drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and flute.
A guest added violin on one track.
Their 2019 debut album Transformation was a big, positive surprise to me with it's Mahavishnu Orchestra like fusion. A very good album indeed.
The music here.... the fusion here is still very much in the Mahavishnu Orchestra vein.
The fusion is also breathtaking fast and ferocious. The speed is 200 miles an hour with some more slow parts inbetween. The music is still pretty melodic.
There is not as many solos here as on the debut album. The violin is more or less gone, with the exception of the opening track, the title track. Flutes has taken over the role of the violin. There is some short and fast flutes and guitar solos here.
The band sounds more like a unit on this album. There is a lot of very interesting details here.
Although sligtly weaker than the debut album, this is still a very good album and one to really enjoy. The fusion scene too is alive and well.
3.5 points
