Natürlich (üblich bei den Jazzern) unterstützt von „echten" Instrumenten wie Piano, Cello, Saxophon und wie sie alle heißen. Dazu noch der unheimlich wohlklingende Gesang von Sängerin Saskia Geiss. Und Wohlklang bleibt das Stichwort. Das klingt alles so gut und großartig zueinander. Warme Töne, das richtige „Pliep" oder „Blonk" im richtigen Augenblick und die verschrobene (Drum´n´Bass-nahe) Rhythmik."... "Man verliert sich in der Musik. Im positiven Sinne."
