‘Occultus Tramitis’ features Terry Bozzio (Jeff Beck / Frank Zappa), Jerry Goodman (MAHAVISHNU ORCHESTRA), Gavin Harrison (KING CRIMSON / PORCUPINE TREE), Scott Henderson (TRIBAL TECH), Simon Phillips (Jeff Beck / Toto), Chad Wackerman (Allan Holdsworth / Frank Zappa) and Dave Weckl (Chick Corea / Mike Stern).

The music on ‘Occultus Tramitis’ differs between tracks, and the fusion of influences that characterises Antoine's music means it doesn't fall easily into a single style or genre. However, the album was composed as a complete work. Melodic aspects are beautifully realised by Jerry Goodman, who features on more than half of the tracks among odd time signatures, multiple modulations and rhythmical illusions. There are exceptional performances from all Antoine's collaborators, including spectacular solos.

"Working on Antoine’s project was a real treat... his compositions and playing made it a unique experience - both challenging and joyful at the same time! He put together a great team of players and I only wish we could have been playing in the same room!"
Jerry Goodman

"Antoine is a fantastic musician. It was a real joy to play on this CD."
Chad Wackerman
