In his review for
JazzTimes Josef Woodard says that, "the trio presents a colorful and convincing example of post-free jazz, mixing intricate rhythmic notions, introspective musings and moments of cathartic release." The 5-star
All About Jazz review by Chris May notes that, "Despite its instrumentation, a good portion of the album is reminiscent of piano/bass/drums trio
The Necks at its most spacious and unhurried." The editors of
NPR Music included the album in their feature "The Best New Jazz Of 2010 (So Far)", and reviewer Lars Gotrich noted that the musicians "share a similar approach to abstract jazz composition and execution: loose and unfolding like a flowering tea, yet full of unexpected color." ==Track listing==
