O’s Notes: Arne plays fusion guitar over a variety tempos extracting rich tones from his axe in all cases. He avoids the gymnastics in favor of warm tones and heartfelt melodies. Robert Lucaciu plays double bass with Eric Schaefer on drums to round out the trio. Special guest Stephan Braun adds cello to the mix. We enjoyed the friendly, peaceful feel of “Deep Wood” and “It’s Always Night” with Braun. There are other upbeat selections of note but the overall thrust is relaxed get and we enjoyed it.
