 Opinions and other informations:

    

Instrumental fusion band of the Zeleste factory in Barcelona. In the vein of other bands from the same label like Secta Sónica, although more jazzy than Secta. They had a lot of collaborations like Toti Soler in guitar and many of them in strings, percussion, etc. Two of its members (Batlles y Ammann) played for Ovidi Montllor in his "Cronica d'un Temps" later on. For their third album they changed their name by "Mirasol Colores"(José Manuel Iñesta)
