About This Album

Recorded at The Church Studios, North London and live in Tokyo while supporting Jah Wobble. Features Djivan's vocals for the first time The Independent "Perfect music for an imperfect world." Mojo "This is possibly one of most beautiful records ever made." The Independent On Sunday "Since his emergence as an international star in the late Eighties, Djivan Gasparyan has become his country’s musical spokesman: his instrument – the mournful duduk – has always seemed to manifest the perfect expression for Armenia’s tragic history. His characteristic soft-hard tonal modulation, and the atmosphere of stillness which it establishes over the drone, makes it irresistible. And although he has now produced several similar albums, this one is still a delight."
