It is the latest live sound source by John McLaughlin’s Force Dimension. The main part will be the Oslo performance in Norway. Because the venue is small, the sound quality is outstanding with remastering recording from the audience master, which was recorded as well as the sound board. The slightly long speeches between songs are cut, and the editing allows you to enjoy the songs at a good tempo. In addition, as a bonus track, songs that are not played in the main part are additionally recorded from the Manchester performance in May of the same year. This was a master that was not as high quality as the main part, but it was upgraded and recorded by remastering to the extent that it was not inferior. In total, the content is summarized as a summary of the 2022 Fourth Dimension.
A coupling item of the sound source and video of the Montreux Jazz Festival held in the summer of the same year was also released from the same label, but since the frame of the festival is fixed, the content tends to be somewhat small, and The members are also a little different, so you can enjoy it as something different.

ジョン・マクラフリンのフォース・ディメンションによる最新ライヴ音源です。本編となるのはノルウェーのオスロ公演。会場が小さい事もあり、サウンドボード並みに良く録れたオーディエンス・マスターからのリマスタリング収録で音質抜群。曲間でやや長くなるスピーチなどはカットし、楽曲をテンポよく楽しめる編集となっています。さらにボーナス・トラックとして本編では演奏されてない楽曲を同年5月のマンチェスター公演より追加収録。こちらは本編ほどの高音質ではないマスターでしたが、リマスタリングによりあまり遜色無い程度までアップ・グレードされ収録。トータルして2022年のフォース・ディメンションを総括するような内容にまとまっています。
同年の夏に行われたモントルー・ジャズ・フェスティヴァルの音源と映像のカップリング・アイテムも同レーベルよりリリースされていますが、フェスティヴァルは枠が決まっているためやや小ぢんまりした内容になりがち、かつメンバーも少し違っている為、それとはまた別のものとして楽しんでいただける内容です。
