Damon Albarn composed the musical score while Jamie Hewlett designed the visual concept, set and costumes. Journey To The West describes as "circus opera" and it's a successful, received positive reviews. The album based on the opera which premiered at Manchester International Festival in 2007. Additionally, you'll listen to well-accented Chinese texts during twenty two cuts. It sounds completely obscure without live scenes, but this is some interesting music to share for sure.
Highlights: The Living Sea, Battle In Heaven, Confessions Of A Pig, Sandy The River Demon, Monkey Bee

These sounds are obscure, jagged, and progressively ethereal. If u like music, give these morsel tracks a try. When I put this music in cue during a drive back from the US East cost to the West coast, my compadres were taken aback [ ... i.e. what the hell is this ??!! ... ] .. but within the first 80 miles, they were assuredly hooked on the different tangents each track pulls you on. Give it a shot. Peace.
