Nihil novi

"The process of brewing definitely takes precedence over blowing here, but that's just fine. You barely miss the the steady flow of solo heroics when so many different flavor notes are hitting the sonic palate".

"... fusions of classic horn-driven hard bop with the grooves and vocal phrasing of modern R&B and hip-hop ... It's a bit jazz-lite, but may be an attractive mix from the R&B angle".

"Nihil Novi offers a watershed of ideas. Strickland goes further, deeper, and wider than most who've dabbled in this arena. His beats, as crisp and tight as they are, never hold back the adventure in his tunes; in fact, they are the force that expands their reach. This music is accessible and emotionally resonant, and never leaves jazz out of the equation".
