Releasing so many records I wonder from where Konstantin Klashtorni get all these inspirations for new songs. What is his working receipt? Konstantin comments꞉ “I listen a lot of different music, I like country music, many pop songs (not all) are of great inspiration. Latin music I like a lot, there is a special drive in it, which helps my grooves to sound a bit distinctive. And of course there is a bunch of Smooth Jazz music where i get my inspiration from. I just need a small idea, usually harmonic, some chords progression or sounds.

Further laying down grooves and the rest is more mechanical process, everything after flows by itself. Specially melody, I've been through all these years wherever I lived, famous for playing short 8, 16 bars sax solos being able to tell a story, so, for me to create a nice melody is much easier and naturally than for overwhelming amount of mates. I've been accumulating for many years ideas and experience, and now is the moment to "write all this in stone" and I like it much more than just playing saxophone.″

Klashtorni opens the album with Have Your Way, a reverie with crystal clear sounds and acoustic guitar in the lead. When the sun rays of the new day are warming up nature, then we are greeting with Good Morning. Konstantin catches the loveliness of the moment with sweet tones.

On Blessings he takes intense use of the synth waves in all alterations. A magical alchemy of ambient song with an impression of New Age. That's Life appears frisky with sounds of nature aptly to the incipient springtime. Blue Pacific is approaching atmospherically the size of this mighty ocean. Beautiful Day receives the listeners with positive feelings and warm sonorities.

The title Like A River aptly describes this tune with a pleasant flow and tranquility. Every Good Thing combines anew all fine musical forms of expression like sax, guitar and synth sounds to an exquisite event. Inside You allures with a prepossessing sax based on an Art of Noise influenced synth rhythm. Nothing Without You is the final mosaic stone of sweetness of this sunny album.

With Groove Jazz N Chill #3 Konstantin Klashtorni creates a wonderful vehicle to indulge our demands for relaxing smooth jazz.
