Recorded 5-6/11 and mixed 7/11-2003. Mastered february 2006. Recorded, mixed and mastered at “La Buissonne”, Pernes-Les-Fontaines, France.
The opening piece, Petit Déjeuner was actually an improvisation recorded the minute we woke up in the morning. We feel that the whole album is done in that “awakened” spirit.

Some material that we could not  make room for is relased on cex05 – Extra Takes as a digital-only album.
