is a collaboration between jazz legend Pharaoh Sanders and producer
Bill Laswell. For this special project, Sanders plays over a
sonically treated recording of a heartbeat with additional
instrumentation and production added by Laswell. The two make the

synthesized sounds and effects as well as electric sitar and
tablas. An experimental record at it's core, this is a soothing
collection which, despite it's musical restrictions, can draw in
the most discerning of listeners.
