If you like the instrumental corner of the PROG universe, you‘ll love Paradigms. A neat piece of work!”
Larne Peters – ProgAlley.eu
“A progressive experimental collection of music that has thrown out the formula book to give way to free-form moods, mental atmospheres, and innovative sound design. Definitely something to enjoy in its entirety. Digging it!”
– Simon Collins (‘Sound Of Contact’, ‘eMOLECULE’ )
“Very spacey and old school but right up my alley!”
Alan Baillargeon – NewEARS Prog Show
“What I have heard of your album so far sounds fkn amazing. Totally unique. Can’t say it sounds like anyone cause
it does not” – Chris Gill (Band of Rain)
Very slick and sophisticated throughout… Sorta Fusion/Prog World music melting pot
– Robert Ancell
If you appreciate music that seeks to break boundaries, tell stories without words, has sublime musicianship, and encourages the listener to immerse themselves in a collective’s vision and art, then you should get this. A genuine highlight of 2023.
