In this album, Suburbanoid employs his world orchestra of organic instruments to create his peaceful, meditative music. This includes Tibetan Singing Bowls, a fusion sitar from India, a Baglama from Turkey, a gong from Italy, Koshi chimes from France, a Kalimba from Africa, an electric guitar, Ebow, ocean drum, buffalo drum and crystal singing bowls from the USA, as well as a 12-string acoustic guitar from Canada, a synthesizer from the UK, among other exceptional instruments. Furthermore, the album features glossolalia vocal styles and chants performed by Helia and Suburbanoid, (representing the divine feminine and masculine). Glossolalia -vocalizations that sound like language but lack conventional meaning, used for spiritual expression (singing in tongues) or as a compositional technique to explore pure sound and emotion.
