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. 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."

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