"Amazing, suggestive - a fascinating debut and an invigorating style denial " - Alex Schmitz, Jazz Podium

”The album is a rollercaster of sounds. At times intense and noisy and other times dreamy and ethereal... It is a surrealist
vision ...a deeply personal expression of avantgarde-rock, jazz, world music and poetic soundscapes " - Jakob Baekgaard, All
About Jazz

"One can only at the warmest recommend this dreamlike dive somewhere between sweet melancholy, jazzy wit and raw
expressivity” Tim Walter, NMZ Magazine

"A kind of musical metamorphosis, from which abstract sound textures arises that, sometimes are noisy, or becomes an
authentic deja vu melodically and harmonically. A work of compositional freedom, an original concept that is worth knowing” Ana
Isabel Palha Rodrigues, Punch Magazine

"It has a jump-cut feel to the writing, lots of time changes and it luxuriates in the tight timbral blend of guitar and two saxophones
– or sometimes two clarinets. ...it also contains interludes of more “old-fashioned” harmonies in a near chamber music style,
and these enhance the more modern improv sections with their contrast. Nijinsky, with its mournful horns and overlay of
electronic noise, is especially good." Peter Bacon, The Jazz Breakfast
