Recording and music edit

The album was recorded in 1996.[2] The music draws on several international influences.[2] "The musical structures are linear, the rhythms full of intricacies welded to Zawinul's love affair with the groove, the synthesizer textures usually sparer than ever. There are vocals in several languages".[1]

Reception edit

The AllMusic reviewer suggested that the album was more world music than jazz, and concluded: "Hear it; you purists may be jiggling along in spite of yourselves."[1] The Penguin Guide to Jazz described it as "hugely disappointing", containing "a drab residue of common riffs, rhythms and disharmonies".[2]
