The album is based upon Lee's and Chapnik Kahn's personal experiences with the South American healing medicine, Ayahuasca, known for its psychoactive properties that are reported to lead the consumer to a state of spiritual awakening.[2] The idea behind the recording was to sonically document the inner journey experienced while partaking in the Ayahuasca ceremony. Lee himself describes the album as "dynamic and joyful, meditative and tender, playful and experimental," and hopes that "the music contains some small portion of the deep nourishment that I have experienced from the plant medicine."[3]

The album's cover art was painted by Lee's wife, Ione Skye[4]

100% of the artist royalties collected from album sales will be donated to the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies and the Amazon Conservation Team.

gollark: Using a bunch of turtles with lasers and a decent amount of code you could fire at random people anywhere (within about 40 blocks and with clear line of sight).
gollark: It involved lasers too, but I made a (Plethora/CC) laser "defense" system a while ago.
gollark: OC drones can do reconnaissance (with Computronics radars) and be annoying, CC turtles can dig tunnels and hit you with swords...
gollark: Well, with other stuff they can be.
gollark: There are mods for computers and robots.
