 Opinions and other informations:

    

Band lidered by Robert Santamaría with two clearly differenciated parts. The first, during the 90s in which they mainly played "world music", with lots of ethnic sounds, percussion, flutes and female vocalist. This sound was being doped with the distinctive fingerprints of the progrock style. "Tierra de Especias" and "Mujer Luna" are two transition records to "Quentadharkën", mainly progressive already, although without forgetting where they come from. They have become one of the more active prog spanish bands. (Jose Manuel Iñesta)
