4 stars The 2020 debut album from this Spanish jazz/psychedelic/progressive rock band, led by José Ruiz (g), who also serves as producer, and focused on a cinematic sound, has been reissued in 2025 by Spain's Astronomy Recording Music Label with an additional bonus track.

"Diciembre" opens with jazzy piano and guitar solos and flows into a refreshing jazz rock/fusion groove as the classical guitar plays a very Spanish melody; "Ekzilo" begins with a cinematic intro with a swaying sound, then turns and transforms into a heavy progressive rock groove with organ-like tones; and "Salaryman" features a captivating Balearic section with human-driven four-four rhythms and a smooth guitar. This is a great album that will shake the listener with its modern sound production and well-crafted development!
