Liner Notes:

It is too easy for young musicians today to succumb to the
commercial pressures that weigh down so heavily upon the music
business, so it is refreshing and rewarding when one realises
that there are still young players who will fly in the face of
fashion and produce music that they believe in rather than stuff
that might bring instant fame and riches.

Buki-Yamaz are such a band of bold hopefuls who stick to their
musical guns and won't compromise their standards. They have the
technical expertise and capability to churn out chart pop to
order, and could easily retire to the sanctity of the recording
studios to channel their musical skills into unworthy projects.

Instead they concentrate on instrumental music that allows them
freedom of writing and playing expression. But this does not
mean they wish to be introverted and produce inaccessible music.
For Buki-Yamaz are lovers of melody as typified by the flowing
string sounds on the beautiful performance of their composition
"Rain Flower" featured on Side One. This melodic aspect stems
from arranger and composer Aske Bentzon, who plays the romantic
flute solos that give Buki-Yamaz music its flavour and identity.

Most of the music revolves around the sensuous flute sounds that
pick out neatly constructed songs like "Lazy Bones", which is
redolent of hot Summer days spent lying in the long grass
observing the buzzing of bees and perhaps the passing of young
girls' legs.

Aske is joined in his venture by some fine players. Aged between
19 and early twenties, they have only been together for 3 years,
and yet they have a calm assurance and sophisticated style one
might expect from much older and more experienced musicians.

Ethan Weisgaard on drums can handle a whole variety of
approaches, from the solid back-beat required for funk drumming
to the subtle Latin American rhythms of the exhilerating "Trade
Winds", that opens Side Two. Cowbells and Klavs Nordsш's extra
percussion give a bright lift to proceedings and provide a firm
base for solo flights by two fine guitar players, Kim Sagild and
Mikkel Nordsш, who contrast in styles, one slightly harder in
