1. Deep Step

3. Houseboats
4. Scrambling To Stay Ahead
5. Yelo
6. The Internal
7. Erased
The first track is a nice relaxing psyambient track with some tribal female vocals by Irina Mikhailova who are into music from Russia, the Middle East and Asia. You can read about her in the cd cover. Track 2 is an experimental jazzy track with a male vocal saying Come With Me To Kansas City. Far away from psychedelic music. In track 4 has a under water vibe, with more electronic down tempo vibes. Best track on the album so far. In this track Kenji has put in some of his violin too. Track 4 is another down tempo chill out track with some vocals by Kenji himself and some piano. Track 5 is a really nice electro dub track, with nice electronic melodies that sounds a bit like some old Orbital tracks. It has also some more vocals by Irina Mikhailowa. Track 6 is slower ambient. Floating with beautiful sounds all the way. The last track on the album is totally chilled ambient without rhythms. You can read the story behind this beautiful track in the cover. He wrote it after a Native American Sundance in Oregon, the most sacred of rituals of the Lakota tribe.
I thought this album would be better after hearing some really interesting projects by Kenji Williams. But there are some really nice moments in this album too. Not very psychedelic, but some nice experimental chill out.
