“Butterworth speaks in [a] lyrical and melodic fashion. There’s a wistful, almost elegiac quality about the music…” Ian Mann The Jazzmann

“UK-based Mike McInerney studied shakuhachi with Iwamoto… he sits patiently singing amid vast soundscapes, until he unleashes complex spirals of flute trills, looping contrails across the sky.” Clive Bell, The Wire, music magazine

Marcus Vergette “…doesn’t sound quite like anything else, music that is open to all influences.” Jon Turney, UK Jazz News

Steve Day “…in his jazz-formed music, the wild leap from a theme to [the] unexpected… is incontrovertibly the right one…” Roger Dennis, Wylde Publications
