Down Beat	[2]

The Down Beat review by Carlo Wolff states, "The sonics are interesting in a workshop way, but few of the 11 tunes are memorable for much more than process. While that can be intellectually stimulating, one eventually craves a melodic statement rather than a musical 'trialogue'."^[2]
