Gapplegate Music Review⎪December 13, 2022

– We’re talking about a great free jazz-based work, like the kind of work Coltrane did in his later years or the kind of work Coltrane would have done if he had lived a little longer.
MIC⎪December 12th, 2021

– It is a triumphant performance from first-to-last.
Gapplegate Music Review⎪June 1st, 2021

– One standout passage arrives towards the close of “Kacho-Fugetsu (Flower, Bird, Wind, Moon),” when Carrier explodes to transform a sequence of quiet muttering into a stratospheric squall.

Maciej Lewenstein⎪Spain⎪24 Deceber 2018

– The primitivism of the improvisations often alternates with extreme sophistication both feed the music’s dynamic impulse all of which results in a novelty of language that is so impressive it borders on extreme genius.
Raul da Gama⎪jazzdagama⎪August 28, 2018

– Out of Silence (both the track and the disc as a whole) is brave, audacious and sometimes uncomfortably exposing – but it is also joyous and freeing at a deeply profound level. Only two artists at the peak of their talent, insight and skill could produce a project of such gravitas and complexity.
Lesley Mitchell-Clarke⎪TheWholeNote⎪Mars 28, 2018

– Carrier’s tone is extraordinarily beautiful for a free jazz performance. Such is the imperturbable sound of a self-possessed musician.

– this is a very impressive piece of music captured for eternity on record and deserves to be heard by all Improvised Music connoisseurs.
Adam Baruch⎪The Soundtrack Of My Life⎪Dec. 17th 2015

– il loro jazz oggi è troppo avanzato rispetto alla media delle proposte canadesi e troppo sbilanciato nella situazione elitaria della nuova musica improvvisativa, elementi che di fatto ne hanno incomprensibilmente bloccato il loro potenziale di espansione conoscitiva.
