Sounds Like
Each song to its own. Multi dimensional music developed through pleasure and passion. Not genre specific.
Forged from the Furnace of Jamming... Rites of Sojourn merges an original and distinct blend of smokin grooves with jazzy mid-tones and seductive melodies. From Titirangi to Spanish America, the music seeks fresh and foreign flavours to play with and express.
A better perspective you ask! Pacemaker - The music video
Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. I can only imagine how inspiring Peru must be! Definitely on my list of places to see before I die. Shoot us a message when you're back here. I'll swap some funky basslines for some stories of South America! Peace, Joe - The Volunteers
