Eddy's percussion playing has been described as capable of inducing other worldly states of consciousness. His fusion of ancient ceremonial instruments with state of the art technology formed the inspiration for the groundbreaking, techno-shamanic-dreamscape- trance-inducing- journey music of ' Lights In A Fat City 's ' seminal LP ' Somewhere '.
