3 stars A bit rough but pretty charming their stage is. They say the album "Live At The Babooinumfest #17" was recorded as their fourth opus (and third live album) at the Prog festival in June 2022. Regardless of saying, it's been tough for all of us to live in an ordinary manner but we can notice they have been active on stage for the audience and also for themselves via the creation. This album consists of smooth, mystic melody lines filled with their original chamber-musical vision. It sounds like they gently talk to the audience with a couple of instruments. Namely their melody lines and rhythmic bases are complicated and eccentric but at the same time it's easy to find the audience would not feel such a complexity nor eccentricity.

This texture can be heard for example through the second track "Let It Shine" featuring Ivan's beautiful but dynamic piano storytelling. Slightly tribal, oriental atmosphere in "Wavering" reminds us that some mixed emotion might be in their inner mind, and we can feel the mutual understanding with them on and in front of the stage.

In conclusion, let me say their sincere and sensitive performance on the stage should relieve and encourage us under such an unstable (mentally, economically, and diplomatically) situation and with uneasiness in unfavourable development all over the world.
