"The soundscapes developed here are wide and complex landscape art ... Visa is not ambient in the way that most people think of ambience, as if it should be something akin to silence or background shuffle. Instead, Visa attempts to grab your attention, never loosening, never fading. Ambient music since its inception was about overlapping voices and how it effects perception: two, three voices are one sustained tone across and infinite period of time, where interactions intersect and combust. Visa exploits this to brilliant ends".

"Visa sounds like a continuation Whistleblower. It's definitely noisier, maybe a little angrier, too, but the same wonderful ear for sound collage is present. The defining trait of both albums is Ripatti's ability to construct dense textural pieces that appear to have no centre of gravity, no single structural element that the rest of the track hangs on. You get the sense that the music is generating itself, moment-to-moment, rather than following a predestined path. There is continuity, but it's intuitive, somehow natural but never predictable".
