"Few musicians go to Mark Trayle's level of musical and technological extremes." - Electronic Musician
"...Trayle is nothing if not a savvy manipulator of varied art and electronic media who has aligned himself with similarly inclined individuals misappropriating fundamental values of sound art for their own unique and provocative ends. A free radical." - Darren Bergstein / Squid's Ear

"The pleasure in listening to this type of music is the pure articulation of textured sound that flits into existence and furrows into your ears. This recording delivers an austere bounty of such sound forms, placed elegantly in a remarkable blend of two focused artistic imaginations." - Musicworks (Chris Kennedy's review of the Nakamura/Trayle disc)
