For this album, he invites John Balance and Peter Christopherson from COIL, they did 13-minutes epic composition "Kála"; and Japanese ambient genius Tetsu Inoue, who decorated the album with it's characteristic sound. Together they created an amazing conceptual record full of deep drones, tabla-rhythms, and ambient collages. "City of Light" is about Banaras, a city older than history, tradition, and legends.
