To commune with the Grammy
award-winning album from 2070
designed to save our world.
(from the injustices, wars,
slaughterhouses etc.)

There is a shimmering that occurs
when the album finishes. As the
voices, rituals, lyrics and koans
bring about sustained love,
joy and positive surrender.

Imagine if Broadcast, Cocteau Twins,
Yukimi Nagano, Prince, Crumb,
D'Angelo, Bilal and Portishead
made an album in unison
designed to save us all.

2068年から2070年にかけて、
私たちの世界は完全に救われました。
これは、可能性の限界に挑戦し
たサーカスの物語です。

"There is nothing static, even in the in-betweens.
Such is, with restless souls. Echoes never sleep.
Swirling, swirling, swirling, we are pulled into a
carnival of the subconscious. Wobbling rhythms,
both inviting and warning; with vocals that
drift and take hold of a lost audience.

Make your way through the fog and smoke,
under the twilight stars. The journey is here!
Revelations are made in the tension, the bells,
cacophony of claps, dissonant verses clashing.
A circular swim through the deep end that
clears to an ethereal and divine release.
Spirited grooves. Hypnotic jazzy pursuits.
The syncopated rhythms swirl. awaken
rather than daze to an important message,
a vision of lasting beauty. Through the haze,
between knowing and unknowing; we try
to remember without dissolving. There
is a settling somewhere outside of time,
unfolding, like meditations. Constant
textures, fragments from a dream.
Mystical, yet each lyric pulls against
the next; resisting understanding
and confusion. A place between
being, becoming and salvation."
(Emily Downes, renowned harpist)
