Album Notes
This album is a ” bass player’s paradise”.Fretless basses electric and semi acoustic sounding fantastic here.They control the harmony,support the groove and born fresh solos.Great sounding groovy drums,and warm Fender Rhodes piano harmonies and solos.There are also a few artificial sounds as water and wind.This album is devoted to artist’s beloved family and friends.

Album Notes
That’s a “bass and tenor sax heaven”.
Wonderful music,mostly with a 5 string,semi-acoustic,fretless and other basses.There are tracks with even 3 basses playing together,(melody/impro,chords and basic bass).Great themes,dry grooves,and inspiring impros by the great Philippos Pappas,on tenor sax,soprano sax and flute.Groove partners,are drums and Fender Rhodes.A lot of space,used wisely,into this music. All basses played by Yiorgos Zikoyiannis,who composed and produced all tunes.A great thanks to Dimitri Bellos who helped at mastering this album.Another great thanks goes to Philippos Papas for his amazing impros.
