This project was launched in September 2023 and recorded in November 2023 (Artikuss, Soleuvre). The mixing and mastering were done by renowned sound engineer Michael Perez Cisneros (Kurt Rosenwinkel, Ari Hoenig, Gilad Hekselman).
The music performed is newly composed specifically for this band by Gilles Grethen. The upcoming album will feature just under an hour of music, including references to Luxembourg and other important places and people from his life.
