Nuevo trabajo de Ángel Ontalva, lider de October Equus y músico y compositor prolífico que, como en otras ocasiones, retoma viejas composiciones que no encajaron en su día o temas de proyectos fallidos y se lanza a profundizar y explorar en ellos para editar un nuevo trabajo. Sigue contando con excelentes colaboraciones como John Falcone y su Fargot en el tema enigmático "The Smoke of Your Fire", o el violín del ruso Vitay en un par de temas. En definitiva, una ofrenda al Jazz rock, avant-garde y rock progresivo de composición compleja e improvisadora a lo King Crimson.

New work by Angel Ontalva, leader of October Equus and prolific musician and composer that, as in other occasions, retakes old compositions that did not fit in earlier works or themes of failed projects and he launches to deepen and explore them to edit a new work. He continues to count on excellent collaborations such as John Falcone and his Fargot in the enigmatic theme "The Smoke of Your Fire", or the violin of the Russian Vitay in a couple of themes. In short, an offering to Jazz rock, avant-garde and p rogressive rock with a complex and improvisational composition in the King Crimson style.
