Notable producer Devin Townsend has announced the first in a series of releases under the moniker Devin Townsend Project. Ki is the first in a series of four albums; each album is a different collection of session musicians playing music written by Townsend. Here is what he had to say of the first release:
Ki is the first in a series of four albums under the moniker Devin Townsend Project. Each album is essentially a different band or collection of session musicians playing my music. They were chosen based on what the theme of the album is and the vibe that the album is trying to project. The album Ki is very specific in this quartet of albums in that it controls its anger throughout, barring one song - 'Heaven Send' - and really is an exercise in having little to prove.
