Review: Prominent Serbian guitarist Dusan Jevtovic and his fellow countrymen recorded this synergistic set in Serbia. The musicians seemingly play the right notes, sans any extraneous dabbling, tinkering or excessive soloing jaunts. Even the improvisational segments are devised on purposeful storylines that often encircle a given theme, largely set upon progressive rock and distinguished keyboardist Vasil Hadzimanov's harmonious voicings and jazzy hooks.
