Katabatic Winds- 16:03 -  Futuristic musicians playing futuristic music is a way I would describe this group of musicians called " The Sonic Liberation Ork S Tra. Almost everyone made the instrument/s that they played on this cd. Gus Mancini plays whistles and bass clarinet, Erik Nugent plays slide clarinet, slide accordian and bass trumpet, John Fay plays the panjo ( a very large skillet with one string and pickup ), Peter Head plays lunch box guitars,Eric Dahlman on trident horn, Michael Knoblack on percussion, Anais on vocals and Ken Lovelett playing a large sound sculpture called "The Bellatope " Recorded mixed and mastered @ Sonart recording studio.com

Solo/Duo - 17:31  gives each of the musicians a chance to improvise a solo only to be joined momentarily by another instrumentalist. We drew straws to see whom would follow whom. This is the order of the solo /duo instruments - The panjo -John Fay, Eric Dahlman - trident horn,  Gus Mancini - Bass clarinet, Michael Knoblach, - water drum,  Eric Nugent - overtone vocal, Ken Lovelett - The Bellatope, Peter Head- cigar box guitar. All the musicians made their instruments.

Synesthesia - 10:25 is a neurological phenomenon where the stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary, automatic experiences in a second, unstimulated pathway (e.g., hearing music as colors). It is a "union of senses".
    The Sonic Liberation Ork S Tra - Featuring : Eric Dahlman - Trident horn, Mike Knoblach - Percussion, John Fay - Panjo, Peter Head - cigar box guitar, Gus Mancini reeds, -Eric Nugent Bass trumpet, slide accordian & slide clarinet,Ken Lovelett " The Bellatope " & Anais Vocalist

 Lime in the Cocoanut - 2:26 -  This short little ditty was extrapolated from a larger improvised piece because of the feel it had .Then for no reason I started to hum the Nilsson song " and the rest is history " !!!!!!!!!! NOT but it was a lot of fun to produce .I put the vocals on and the high background vocal Eric Dahlman did was already there so it worked out great.
