This is truly a fantastic album that's stood the test of time some 15 years later. I don't have much to add to the rave review already posted except that the 1995 version is actually pretty different than the 1996 release - same thing is true with (I think) his first three albums. I've got "original" releases and then later ones downloaded from the Interweb (I own it, so I can legally download it, to save me the time of converting from CD -> FLAC/MP3/whatever) - and there's definitely differences - one of the three, not sure which (not this release though) is pretty much the same but the original is paced about 5-10 BPM faster (depending on the track.) Then again, it could just be Yet More Crap on the Interweb. In any case, the Dakani label has *never* put out a bad release, and Makyo continues to evolve yet still retains all the goodness of his early material. Truly one of the most brilliant musicians (as are all on Dakani) of the last and current century. And I'm not prone to gushing.
Rated 5/5

The first Makyo release.. and it's fantastic, real brilliant album! Starting with dakini, free enterprise as a mantra leads us to strange outer world.. And there are not only words, but it works! after great kick-off you're starting to make experiments with your perception, with Devabandha (Tantric Laswell Mix) one can go to long long trip which never ends, even after finishing the album!.

Every track has some unique sound, unique relation with the listener. It's ambient, but sometimes feels like heavy fluent waves beating.

Musically it's very rich, full of genuine instruments accomplishing with wide range of electronic effects.

True masterpiece!
