Reviews of Quiet Inlet on ECM




Here are som reviews of Foods Quiet Inlet (ecm)

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


The Milkman, The Milkfactory

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

 By Chris Pearson, Express.co.uk
 

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

WALTER N. WEHUS, Bergens Tidende
