    Steinberger GM4S and ZT-3, Kiesel Vader V6X and recently a Mistral custom guitar built by swiss guitarmaker Marco Bernasconi are the electric guitars I play on my third album. There are also electric bass, aeon sustainer ("e-bow"), guitalele, hanottere, kinnor, mandola, shofar, whistle, wine glasses and grasses. For this production I used everything possible to get special, strange and oddly percussion sounds: Stones, wrenches, oil tank, knife, branches, marching through dry leaves and udu. I did not use any drumsamples. Mark Wingfield at Heron Island Studio has mastered "Crucial". The cover of the album consists of various photographs I tooked with several pinholes.
