all songs written and arranged by KITARO

As a pure KITARO-san's studio recording album which was made for 100% KITARO-san himself (not for movie or TV etc...), this was the very first album since OASIS in 1979. This album has gentle and pastoral feeling throughout the album, especially in between the beginning and "NOAH'S ARK". Also this album has many pop-type of songs which have pop and approachable melodies, while improvisation part is obviously fewer than last album TENJIKU. So having this kind of musical direction, this album has a bit close impression to QUEEN MILLENNIA. Two songs "DREAMS LIKE YESTERDAY" and "NEVER LET YOU GO" are surprises, because they are so pop!! These two song sound like having the same direction as QUEEN MILLENNIA album or "CARAVANSARY" on TENJIKU album, but have more pop feeling. If vocal part singing lyrics were added, without doubt they become a kind of pop songs on pop chart!!

Comparing to KITARO-san's all previous studio recording albums, this album has many songs which has simple rock rhythm by drum kit. Since that kind of songs are mostly in the middle of the album's song order, this album's "KITARO-san's typical flow represented through an album" or ups and downs are weaker than QUEEN MILLENNIA and TENKU, and CANNOT be said that this is a stronger album in KITARO-san's whole discography. While it seems difficult to find QUEEN MILLENNIA at this moment, you better pick up this album if you like TENKU album.
