A magical hybrid of technology and
improvisation, ambience and dance.
Colin Buttimer,
BBC Music magazine
Like with every Food release until
now, Quiet Inlet is a highly textural and atmospheric record, focussed
primarily on Strønen’s exquisite percussive displays and gentle electronics,
which serves as a stunning backdrop for Ballamy’s evocative melodic motifs, in
turn on tenor and soprano sax.
4.8/5

A musical meditation for the
post-industrial shaman. *****

Quiet Inlet vibrates with
irresistibly fascinating detail and visceral excitement.
John Fordham, The Guardian
*****
A disc full of rich textures and
colours and with a unique blend of electronic and acoustic sounds. 4/5
Ian Mann, The Jazz Man
Spaciously introspective
collaborations that are strong on mood. *****
Mike Hobart, Financial Times
Food is at the forefront of
exploring modern jazz. Melodic, rhythmic and improvisation-rendering.
A Michelin star worthy.
PER A. RISNES JR. Dagens Næringsliv
Music that is poetic and soft but
with an overwhelmingly rich sound. 5/6
