"A compilation of instrumental tunes written for side projects... close to what has been done by Asia for their "Rare" release. Some main themes seem to show out of this quite messy release (corn field, forest, sea), and it would have been great if those were grouped in some way (more info provided about the "multi-media scoring work" would have been great too, info which was present on the "Rare Asia" release for example).

Most of the stuff here sounds a lot like TG's old work in King Crimson or the ProjeKcts, with him doing all the guitar/bass work and adding some keyboards, scarce (backing) vocals and different drummers. Overall it's a very enjoyable album that can be listened from start to end without bothering about song names, with one major exception: the pointless last track. While all other tunes range in the 1-3 minutes mark, the last instrumental lasts more than 20 minutes. And it cannot even be called music: imagine someone making some piece of chalk squeek on a black board... that's nothing compared to the torture of listening to that track... and it lasts 20 minutes!"
