“...demanding experimental fare, but with so much humor and technical perfection, that the attentive listening quickly develops to pure enjoyment.”
(Augsburger Allgemeine)

“(Veit Lange).... plays on high standard with remarkable sltilistic selfreliance, avoidance of cliches and is looking for innovative conclusions....”
(Neue Ruhr Zeitung)

”.. Sebastian Räther, one of the double-bass players most-asked at the moment. Empathetically and full of ideas in his solo playing he underpins - unfutile like his colleagues - the extremely diverse interplay more than solidly.”
(StadtRevue, Köln)

"... the excellent rhythm group around drummer Christoph Hillmann and the bassist Sebastian Räther is no casual accompanying number, but a symbiosis from two very individualistic musicians. Especially impressive is their rhythm playing in the minimalism area, swingy and groovy in spite of slightly used means."
(Kölner Rundschau)

“The same also can be said about Christoph Hillmann, who bursts every drum-cliche. He smacks on everything and with everything what is found in his radius of action. No matter if it is a frying-pan, a childrens-drum or a grate - his variety of ideas seem boundless.”
(Solinger Tageblatt)

“(Christoph Hillman)... works for two - to speak - with closed eyes you could believe sometimes a percussionist on stage in addition.”
(Rheinische Post)

“(...) and there is the Swabian Andreas Wahl with an arsenal of electric and acoustic guitars which he brings into action extremely fascinating.”
(Neue Ruhr Zeitung)

“There rage passionate guitar-storms, rustle dusty country-sounds, new music is played - but all without loosing sight of the basics of jazz. Stiffen wind from all sides!”
(United Jazz Society)

“(Peter Bolte)... not only has his very own alto sax sound, but creates seldom heard, selfreliant improvisations.’
(Gerd Filtgen, Stereo)

‘Fire and phantasy, technique and soundbeautiness - it is all there. Bolte comes from the deep of technical obligations and when he advances to the experimental areas, he doesn’t devote himself to freejazz ideologies, but demonstrates organic developments.’
(Ulrich Olshausen, Hessischer Rundfunk)
