Reception

edit

Linc Dubwise from The Canberra Times said "[the] acid jazz group... delights in the potential of jazz as accessible, entertaining, populist and, above all, danceable. The acid label is no more than a convenient identifier for the current generation of artists melding elements of jazz, fusion, funk, rap, soul and world music."[1]
