Following the electric jazz\/funk of 'Susto' and 'One-Way Traveller', most of the 1980s was devoted to creating this music. It stands as a record of his confrontation with pure electronic sound, a globally rare work that bridges the missing link between jazz and electronic music. To be able to reintroduce this to the world through Taylor Dupree's remastering is nothing short of pure joy.\" (Masaaki Hara, rings producer) Wind gently sweeps through landscapes dyed in monotone. What is it searching for? What is it seeking?Where does the wind ultimately go? A single moment transports you to another dimension. There, time flows eternally. The accumulation of seconds, unstoppable by anyone. In that instant of feeling the grandeur of Earth and the universe, everyone looks back on themselves, and gazes upon themselves.
