Well, this is actually my first full-length album on Jamendo. It's natural continuation of  "Game of Live"  but this time orienting not only on our lives but on our beliefs and knowledge too. Much of that following loose conceptual line of one serpent  of which we all three wrote our own variants (plus pair of my instrumentals). So this is one more loose conceptual album where you get best expiriance by listening all tracks in sequence. If you burn this on cd leave no pause between tracks.

Giant THANK YOU to Mary Cross and Ivan for enormous generosity with their time and creativity. Without them this album as it is would not be possible.

... and call for truth. C. at last gives us an LP to give us time to enter his musical and sounding universe. And that does it, with the golden collaboration of Mary Cross and Ivan1984. Funny thing happened meanwhile : the songs we already know seem different ! sounds like C. has remastered them. And it sounds fantastically good ! Thanks for the work and share.

Dark and minimalistic, but deep and writhing with serpents and poetic protest against the human condition, lost and mapless since the Fall. A great voice has Mary Cross and what poetry and music the three have produced (Cvijaxo, Ivan1984, and Mary) as to be profound, moving and frightening. "Noah's Raven", with quotes about the power and evils of knowledge, was earth shattering. Deep moaning and groaning, almost Hellish in nature, emanate from "In Cities(Suburbia3)." Music styles and genres do vary from track to track but maintain the standard set by the style of the artists. The style of this experimental kind of album is Avant garde as it pushes the boundaries of our musical expectations. I enjoyed the experience of listening, visualizing, reading, and interpreting this work and am very impressed by the thoughtful care taken to compose and create this work of art. Standing and applauding. Lots of applauding.

Me ha sorprendido gratamente este album. Música electrónica un tanto oscura con toques orientales que me han recordado a cosas de los gran Popol Vuh. Muy interesante.

... if you let it, it can fill you mind with pictures, scenes and much more. this album is not to hear while having friends arround and doing other things, you have to be alone and headphones on.

Poem/ballet surrealiste

Music really interesting / scheming which blends types and voices to transport us along a sound poem / ballet rather minimalist because essential. Voices are particularly well sung while sounds regulate or envelop in a subtle way in the point that transitions make very of course what gives a real unit in this sonic poem which I would see definitely in ballet, one day, can be... Thank you very much for the share Cvijaxo :) Musique vraiment intéressante/intrigante qui mêle les genres et les voix pour nous transporter le long d'un poème/ballet sonore plutôt minimaliste car essentiel. Les voix sont particulièrement bien chantées tandis que les sons rythment ou enveloppent de manière subtile au point que les transitions se font tout naturellement ce qui donne une réelle unité à ce poème sonique que je verrais bien en ballet, un jour, peut être... Un grand merci pour le partage Cvijaxo :)
