What we have here is a twelve track album that leans mostly to the style of experimental jazz with traditional instruments such as clarinet, drums, bass and such. If you are into that sort of thing, this album is pretty good, actually. Instead of a soundscape, I feel what this artist gives us an intimate picture of his imagination wandering regardless of the location. While there’s no real “desert” vibe, it’s not really for us to determine if that’s what the artist was thinking or not.

But this is a good record if you are into jazz with some experimentation. And with a limited number of instruments, the album really paints a picture of imagination in simplicity and intimacy. I’d say it’s worth checking out if you are into the aforementioned styles.
