Down Beat[2]

The Down Beat review by Bill Meyer notes "Håker Flaten often favors probing melodies over walking lines, and the absence of a clearly defined central pulse opens up the music in thrilling ways."[2]

The All About Jazz review by Troy Collins states "Straddling the line between unfettered freedom and the traditional conventions of implied structure, The Rempis Percussion Quartet covers a wide range on Montreal Parade, demonstrating the continuing validity of their freewheeling approach with compelling fervor."[3]

In her review for JazzTimes, Lyn Horton says "This music demonstrates how to balance rhythm, tunefulness and sound-making in the art of improvisation."[4]
