This world/ethno oriented music is an exposition of sounds from instruments of different cultures. Even the voice is being used in a unique way, by using its natural harmonic overtones as a melodic expression, as is done in the mongolian tradition, but combining with melodic movements inspired by the gregorian chant.
The voice, the didgeridoo from Australia, singing bowls from Tibet, Thailand, India and Japan, gongs from china, the udu (percussive clay pot) and various percussion instruments give the music a wide range of sound colours, that take the listener on a journey of exploring new musical landscapes and dimensions.

The recordings for STICKS AND STONES were made in Stockholm too and we collected stones and wood from different places in sweden, to give this recording some 'special' sounds. As a guest musician for this recording Vigyan was invited, who came over from the west coast and also he brought different additional woods and metal pieces for some more 'sound colours' on this album.
