For a couple of tracks Jimi hooked up with a Ghanan-Nigerian combo called Rhythm Taxi, and Aventur Choir provides vocal harmony on three tracks. The opening track features spoken word from Allonymous, and of course many of the "regular" guys, including Mikey Wilson, Chris Dawkins, Jukka Eskola, Jay Kortehisto, Maurice Fulton, Ilkka Mattila, Tuomo Puranen, Terry Edwards, Hilary Jeffery, Timo Lassy, Tero Lindberg, Niko Kokko and Mongo Aaltonen, are also there. This time there's also real strings played by Maija Linkola and Elina Lehto.
