His music is sparse, yet emotional, and this is album is a strong listening experience beyond its one track with Jon Anderson. As for that track, "Sadness of Flowing" began as a 2002 composition of Machajdík's entitled "Flowing Into the Unknown", which was recorded in 2003 and released on his album of the same name. Anderson then recorded his vocals in November 2007, at his home studio, on top of the existing piece. The combination is some of Anderson's best work in years: his narrative lyrics, vaguely reminiscent of "The Spell", are delivered with an effecting fragility over Machajdík's haunting music.
