Lilith - demo 2005

Try to guess where you are. Very soft feminine voice leads you through secret spaces. Orient and wildness of sounds in piece #4 suggest that sensual but emphatic melody won’t make you free to go away so easily. You float with the sounds, but they won’t let you cross the...

Lingua Fungi - Flowery Dreams

I wouldn't recommend listening to this CD in a far-from-euphoria state. The title "Flowery Dream", although sounding very positive, is far from musical happiness and moody lucidity.
