Long-awaited solo album by Scarlet Hollow bassist and composer Jeffrey Erik Mack. The album was released as a Limited Edition Factory CD-RP and 24-bit Hi-Res digital.
When you think of Progressive Rock music you might imagine overambitious chord progressions, pompous synthesizer noodling, and long, endless musical phrases that never seem to end. But, think again. Jeffrey Erik Mack’s music is much deeper than that. In fact, it is the epitome of Prog with poetic storytelling through the medium of instrumental music.

Ukrainian musician/composer/producer Antony Kalugin is amazingly prolific. Amongs all his other projects this was already the 13th Karfagen album (released in early 2022). Of course, a new one is ready to see the light of day in early 2023 ;-)
This album is (as all his stuff) clearly 70s oriented, "golden-era prog", extremely rich in melodies and arrangement ideas. Some jazzy, folky, classical influences included and very well sounding, too :-)

This was truly an extraordinary passage. From beginning to end, "Passage To The Forest Of Mysterious & Birds" is a celebration of Karfagen's legacy and a sweet spoonful of nostalgia for it's fans. The first half embodying both aspects best, reviving familiar themes and ideas as phoenixes to fly along the new flock. The second being a more than worthy expansion and observation of the classic "Birds Of Passage", re-freshed, re-mused, re-fused. My endless respect to Antony's passion for his work. The John
