SONG DESCRIPTION:
The title song of the album. The name comes from the insane rhythm cycle of the song! These melodies were originally composed in a 9 beat (or 18) rhythm cycle which is subdivided 4+4+4+6. That version is called Dance of the Hermit which is the last song on this album. Here we do the same melodies, except instead of three 4 beat phrases, we use 5 beat phrases, which makes it 5+5+5+6 (21)!
FEATURED MUSICIANS:
