Utilising Chinese drum, ocarina, shakers, flutes, whistles, violin, bells, acoustic guitar, gongs, clarinet, n’vike, harmonium, Korg ms-20, moceño, tapes. owl flute and more, The Garden of Mathematics is an alluring, alien, bizarre, colourful, curious, fascinating, peculiar, romantic and astonishing recording where beauty coexists with unsusual atmospheres in an exotic exploration of sound and song.

Navigating waters possibly traversed by Angus Maclise, Pygmy Unit or Charlie Nothing the nine tracks the Garden brings forth take the listener on a journey through sound and song via nature and the expansive mind.
