Makara / Deciphered
“To be perfectly honest, we’ve started, stopped, revisited and reimagined this new album for the past seven years. We think people are going to be stoked with the results. This new record is a true vintage E.S. Posthumus experience.”
E.S. Posthumus, 2009

Notes
- Originally scheduled for a November 2009 release, the album was pushed back a few months.
- This album includes modernised renditions of classical songs created hundreds of years ago by legendary composers.
- Saint Matthew Passion was a composition written by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1727. The work used in Makara is movement 78, referred to as Wir setzen uns mit Tränen nieder.
- Moonlight Sonata was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1801. The movement used in Makara is perhaps the most recognisable and unique out of the three, Adagio sostenuto.
