"Een nieuwe “message in a bottle” die vanuit Oostende de wijde wereld ingestuurd wordt." - "Een overwegend melancholische soundtrack met indrukwekkende filmische accenten. Alsof ze de desolaatheid van het bestaan verklanken in een roes van dromerige visioenen."

"Yamen blendt westerse en oosterse klanken met zijn trompet, net zoals Otto op zijn zelf ineen geknutselde contrabas voor de nodige diepgang zorgt. Maris zorgt dan met zijn accordeon voor een zigeunereske sfeer. Knap!"

"Yamen blends western and eastern sounds with his trumpet, just as Otto provides the necessary depth on his self-assembled double bass. Maris then creates a gipsy-esque atmosphere with his accordion."
