The songs follow in the footsteps of our last album Aum Akua which was a play on words combining the Hawaiian word amakua (spirit animal) and the Sanskrit word for Om (Aum). This album features the Slack-Key guitar along with Indian Tablas and African Ngoni, but also introduces the handpan, tuned tabla tarang, and other melodic percussive elements evoking the feeling of Balinese Gamelan. Inspired by this, Joss and Kimo play different scales bringing new shades of light and shadow into the music.
