Master Margherita’s composition style shows his “free thinking” application to his music, no code, just following the path of his feelings in the music he composes. The list of guest artists and producers was chosen at the beginning of 2006 and all the tracks were finalized during spring 2006.
Mastura means in to be stoned Greek … hehehe.

To conclude this excellent release, we finish with an ambient beatless ending track.

Artist Profile:

This experimentation saw a change of musical direction for him into the world of « ambient » soundscapes.

In 2003, with trance dj - Gaspard, musician - Ajja S.F.Leu and artist - Tanina Munchkina, he took part in the creation of PEAK records (the first Swiss psychedelic trance label). Peak records is now one of the top underground labels, with over 10 releases (compilations, artist albums – all psychedelic trance or chill out / ethno ambient).
