3 stars Interesting collaboration with Michal Urbaniak continues on this album. Acoustic guitar and violin, sometimes joined by bass, give a warm and intimate feeling to music. The sonic territory is closest to classical music but there are jazz elements, too. The violin sound could be reminiscent of Jean-Luc Ponty, the instrument is played very well and can take lead fearlessly. Acoustic guitar leads are played usually without violin, sometimes underlined by bass.

The compositions are quite melodic, no aimless strumming. The title track is prototype of contemporary acoustic jazz with plenty of explorative moments. "Stuff's Stuff" gives more exposure to the acoustic jazz bass.

The album is good but some tracks go on for too long, such as the last one.
