The instrumental music chartsnew territories as it explores themes that are sometimes deeply personal,spiritual and otherworldly, including new fatherhood, sleep deprivation, loss andrebirth with titles that include Steps, Vespers, Eyes Open & Lullaby. Guests onthe album include Trina Basu (Brooklyn Raga Massive), Tori Lo Mellin (DharmaSwara), and Willa Roberts (Black Sea Hotel).
