With all this talent in one band, they are able to woo crowds and have been a crowd favorite since their inception. In 2003 they released their first mini-album containing four songs entitled, "Light Emitting Diode". They were heavily inspired by 70's Miles and Weather Report and that can be seen in their music with brushes of jazz, house, ambient, minimal, electronica, and krautrock. Beyond their unique brand of jam music, they paint soundscapes by having a strong affinity towards images and psychedelics. In December of 2009 they released their long awaited first album, "GAIA DANCE". · close
