"The trio of Per Gärdin, Travassos, and Marco Franco want you to consider the possibility that we all possess a sixth sense, an inexplicable awareness beyond normal perception." ... "The suggestion of a sixth sense, or ESP, is a clue as to what the trio's scheme is on this recording. Spontaneous improvisation, yes. But they also give the impression this music exists apart from its analog wave or conversion into a stream of numbers."

"De drie muzikanten zijn constant in beweging, van elkaar weg of naar elkaar toe, individueel en samen zoekend naar… Ja, wat eigenlijk? De vier stukken zijn zonder vooropgezet plan gestart, zo klinkt het althans. De richting waarin de muziek zich beweegt is dan ook alles behalve voorspelbaar. Precies daar zit de kracht van dit trio: de muzikanten houden je op het puntje van je stoel doordat nooit zeker is wat de volgende muzikale move zal zijn. Ondertussen weten zij wel op fraaie wijze te improviseren, soms in elkaars vaarwater tot de mooiste resultaten te komen of juist los van elkaar te schitteren, maar dan zonder de anderen uit het oog te verliezen. Steeds is sprake van samenhang."

"These three jazz masters are inventive, creative and interesting improvisers."..."Their collective improvisations have versatile, vivid, gentle and innovative sound."..."The instrumentation is colorful and bright – it has wide range of different playing techniques, colors, timbres and sounds, which are produced by each musician. "..." The music of this album has passionate and bright sound – it was created by three outstanding improvisers, which are doing their best to create fresh and inventive sound of music."

"Ibland virvlar spelet euforiskt, ibland störtar det sig fram genom dimmorna. Det är mycket dramatiskt och det är nästan så en tappar andan inför detta i det närmaste pauslösa framträdande. De har mycket att säga och somligt tål att tas om gång på gång. Det svänger hårt hela tiden utan att bröta till det."
Thomas Millroth, Orkesterjournalen #5 2018
