This album took four years to create. It came from really thinking about the night and space. It tries to open up a special world, like talking with sounds from somewhere else. Great musicians helped make this happen. The Quarto Quartet and Deyan Velikov played the strings, layering them to sound like a whole orchestra. Görkem Devrim Ökten played the qanun, and Jánnos Eolou's piano is what the album is all about, guiding you through the story.

Jánnos Eolou, who trained in the UK and US, has had a long and respected career writing music for theater, modern dance, and movies. A big moment for him was working with director Fatih Akin on the movie Solino. The soundtrack, released by BMG Germany, got great reviews and stayed in the Top 40 soundtracks on Amazon Germany for almost two years. His music has been played and released in lots of countries in Europe and the Middle East, so he's got a solid international presence.
