Description/Reviews: 

Sithu describes the first disc as a diverse assortment of songs that are meant to be jarringly different from each other. Though each song is distinctly Sithu Aye, this album spans a variety of genres and moods. The majority of these seven tracks are epic in length, with the majority clocking in around eight minutes. In these extended song structures, Sithu‘s work evokes influences as diverse as David Bowie, Myrath, Periphery, Polyphia and Intervals. Though each song on the record is strong in its own right, personal favorites include “Constants and Variables” and “Beyond the Boundary.” These songs are journeys of their own, moving from the typically upbeat tone of Sithu’s work to darker and more diverse moments.
