The concept for this album was inspired by the Greg Bear book of the same name, which deals with the life of a Japanese pilot abducted during the 2nd world
war and forced to live in isolation in a strange artificial environment.
The music was built around a couple of tracks left over from previous
projects. A happy accident which led to one of my favourite albums being created.
Another 'journey' album with a positive conclusion. One of the rare
opportunities for Dave Miller from Expandis to be featured on guitar.
