"den 28-årig Nubya Garcia, som på 'Source' behandler sit ophav (moderen er fra Guyana, faderen fra Trinidad), så latin-flagrende, reggae-swingende og storbypumpende fusions-guirlander strømmer fra hendes tenorsaxofon ... Garcia har udtalt, at hun vil give et nyt perspektiv på den afrikanske diaspora, som har haft en afgørende indflydelse på moderne rytmisk musik, og på ni numre bevæger hun sig frit fra spirituel jazz til hiphop. Men man hører altid hendes personlige stemme, der søger den gode melodi".

"While widely recognised as one of the forefront talents of this generation of London jazz, Garcia has generally preferred to stay in the background ... On 'Source' she's stepping into the spotlight, and it's not before time: this is as good an encapsulation of the current wave of UK jazz as you're likely to find - deeply melodic, brilliantly played, and blessed with a spirit that feels generous and boundless".

"[Garcia's] long-awaited solo debut feels like a significant moment: a fitting showcase for this most elegant and composed of team players. 'Source' doesn't limit itself to jazz - check the dub reverberations which echo through the superb title track - but it doesn't feel faddish, or neurotic in trying to cross over, either. So "Boundless Beings", featuring Chicagoan singer Akenya, bends Badu-ish nu-soul into Garcia's aesthetic, rather than compromising it, and "La Cumbia Me Está Llamando" artfully integrates Afro-Colombian rhythms and chants. While her own solos have a fluent grandeur, Garcia remains as generous a leader as she was a collaborator: keyboardist Joe Armon-Jones, for one, cuts loose in a way he rarely does on his own releases".

"To those familiar with Garcia's work, Source will be an unsurprising listen. Collaborating with her longtime band of keyboardist Joe Armon Jones, bassist Daniel Casimir and drummer Sam Jones, the album's nine tracks play as a thematic continuation of her previous dancefloor-primed EPs ... Yet, Garcia holds back just short of delivering the intensity we know she's capable of achieving during live performances. It ultimately makes for a tantalizing listen, but one that would be enhanced by the bandleader's confidence to fully cut loose and elevate her ensemble along the way".
