fLako: Carving Away The Clay (EP, 10 Inch, Digital)
‘Carving Away The Clay‘ impresses upon the idea of an ongoing process in which raw material is stripped off of anything superfluous or impeding until the essential parts of ourselves are exposed. It is a never ending process of striving for perfection in all areas of life.
