This is a 44 minute trip to another universe by Henrik Öja, former lead guitar player, now resident bass player in the Spacious Mind. He plays all the instruments except the drums, which are played by David Sandström. This was recorded up in Skelefteå at the Space Your Face studios. The CD is split into 3 tracks, for convenience I guess as the music is one long trip. It starts with a spaced out folky acoustic guitar and then the journey takes off into a place that is somewhere in between Hawkwind and Pink Floyd territory but then moves slowly back into the forests of your mind before taking off again. This is truly an incredible musical synthesis. Henrik is a fantastic musician with a very spaced out mind for making incredible music. This is highly recommened if you like to just trip out and go to another universe for 45 minutes. When can I hear the next one?????????
