The review by Terje Mosnes of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album 5 stars (dice),[2] and the reviewer Tor Hammerø of the electronic Norwegian newspaper NettAvisen awarded the album 4 stars (dice)[1]

With Morten Qvenild himself on the team as special guest, the ambitions are high. The quartet was recognized in Norway already in 2004, when they won the Jazzintro award, and the musicians shows extreme instrumentalist and composer skills.[2]
