Backed by a formidable rhythm section featuring drummer Shuichi "Ponta" Murakami and bassist Rei Ohara, the album showcases Fukamachi's masterful use of analog synthesizers, employing a rich palette of tones throughout. The record also highlights the intense and fluid guitar work of Kenji Omura, whose electrifying solos add another dimension to the music. The centerpiece is undoubtedly the approximately 14-minute jazz-funk epic "Bamboo Bong," a breathtaking showcase of the musicians' virtuosity and creative energy.
