(Review from progweed.net)

All four of these men were members of Magma at one time or another. On this album the four of them got together to indulge their desires to play jazz fusion outside the setting of Magma, and the result is pretty good. This album is not your standard fusion; it actually leans more to a more commercial ’80s style of fusion than the usually more interesting ’70s fusion, but gives it an interesting kick in the pants.

The first track, “GHK Go To Miles” is 24 minutes long and is the weirdest and most Magma-like track on the album. It starts funky with Janick Top’s percussive bass and Christian Vander’s impeccable drumming stopping and starting in some rather unusual rhythms. The track gets more melodic and includes interesting violin and keyboard solos by Didier Lockwood and Benoit Widemann.

“Overdrive” is a nice melodic track that vaguely reminiscent of Xaal’s more melodic moments on their first album. The third track, “767 ZX” teeters perilously on the edge of cheesy smooth jazz before it veers into a fast, swinging theme complete with walking bass lines and jazzy violin and keyboard solos. This is the most overtly jazzy part of the album, and it is quite nice (even for someone who doesn’t like “real” jazz) once it gets going. “Reliefs” is the fourth and last song. It has a heavy, funky riff that is reminiscent of Birds of Fire-era Mahavishnu Orchestra.

This is an unusual album that should appeal to anyone who likes fusion and Magma. It is an interesting study in how these four very left-field musicians approached the already stagnating genre of jazz fusion.
