The album’s style is close to breakbeat and drum & bass, with experimental incursions. Hakim de Merv, a Peruvian critic, referred to the release of this album as "the birth of non-trance Peruvian dance electronica." "Chambi," one of the many outstanding songs this album has to offer, pays homage to the famous Peruvian photographer, Martin Chambi. "SDF-18 bit groove," another great song, samples and recreates the theme song from the animated series, Robotech. The video produced for the song "Carmín Ciclón," was broadcast on MTV in 2001.
