It follows a nonlinear, noncohesive self-realization where he journeys towards the North with his followers until finally changing form in the forest. Every track is an attempt to recreate what Siddhartha and his follower Ananda might have seen directly through their eyes. Process Of Making The Album: 'Dragon Rising' utilizes compositions & ostinatos created using a 45-year-old Harmonium and combines electronic elements, Vocal improvisations, and fully detuned custom Violin, Guitar, and Brass Flute.
