The band was founded by three American and two Hungarian well educated and well known musicians. The common musical expressions and the way of feeling about music and life brought them together. First they went on tour and then to the studio in March – May 1998. The recording session has started in Hungary and continued in New York. This record is a 24 track analog recording. The band was playing together in the studio. There is no overdub recording with the exeption of Mike Stern’s work.
