Vol.1 Spirit of the Rhythm

The initial idea for this album rose from something,
Which I have dreamed of and wished for,
As well as my personal experiences since I live in Bali.
I made this album to bring several kinds of

musical instruments
And different musical traditions together.
I was also inspired

by countless jamsessions with friends,
Who played music together in a special way.
Finally this led me to create the music, which can be

heard On this album

Vol.2 Flowing with the Rhythm

In this music
the main thing is sound,mood and atmosphere.
It doesn't stick to any particularmusical tradition
because this would limit the expression.
Because it is flowing freely,

uniting people
through playing music together,

it is able to touch one's feelings,

regardless of nationality.

Vol.3 Spirit of Life

In this albumI want to express
that now man are become greedy, snob and selfish.
Forgotten their surrounding,and with one nature

disaster they becameconfused and frightened.

Let's start to
take care of our Earth now
because we will get bad karma
if we are not.

Vol.4 Elements of the Rhythm

In this album

I try to make us stronger to face this life
without looking at the differences of skin colours and
without seeing where we live.

Let's go together by holding on the
spirit and energy of life.

The common tie between all instrument bening that they are all accoustic.
