This record has such a magical flow to it, it seems to capture so directly the ups and downs of life, the joy of music and dance, and it's just so damn catchy and fun to listen to as well. Giles

It's almost hard to believe there's any space for Tim to fit in when they play this stuff as a duo! The magical uber-complex counterpoint flowing from and resolving to the killer tunes has a similar feel to the full band Berne but these are clarifying in their complexity - you can understand all the moving parts on the same level. Also perhaps the best showcase of Mr Mitchell's solo skills I've heard - he's fully in his element! Giles

I've had this idea for more than a few years now that bass players seem to keep making the most wonderful, thought provoking jazz music. Stephan is absolutely in line with a generation of players, like Drew Gress, Matt Brewer, Mats Eilertsen and Scott Colley. Great tunes, great improv and the ability to get great performances from their fellow musicians. jazzrob
