Notes

from the back cover:
Solar is a series of music travelogues (a journal in sound) charting the ever changing cross-cultural currents in music's textural paths. Electroacoustics, sound sculptures, field recordings, traditional percussion, self built instruments, fourth world and electronic experimentation, genres and distinctions have become blurred reference points. This edition features over 75 minutes of exclusive and specially recorded material and includes an 18 panel guide combining information on the contributors with captured images.
