"The album is crowded with diverting variations - steady rhythm patterns coloured by Crowley's long-tone harmonising, funeral songs that shift from despondency to renewal and ringing minimalist mantras that become pounding jazz jams. Burch's control of her craft, and empathy with its origins, seems to give the music an indefinable soulfulness to match its dancefloor vivacity".

"Melding Ghanaian rhythm, minimalist repetition and improvisatory jazz pizazz, percussionist Bex Burch unveils a debut album which glints with hypnotic majesty, all based around first-hand experience of living and making music with the Dagaare tribe of West Africa ... It would seem that there are areas of this vast, African-inspired canvas yet to be coloured - and with such an intuitive personnel, that's something to very much look forward to".
