The All About Jazz review by Raul D'Gama Rose states, "Together, these three musicians have created an ingenious document where past and present collide revealing a glimpse what might be in a not-so-imaginary future." [2]

The Point of Departure review by Stuart Broomer says, "It's work (for musician and listener alike) that consistently surprises, whether it's Laubrock's articulation (like a gentle machine gun), Weston's at once billowing and blistering keyboard passes, or Marshall's eerily evasive knitwork that simultaneously links and dissolves the myriad connections in the music. It's free improvisation of rare consonance." [5]

Stef Gijssels of The Free Jazz Collective commented: "The overall effect is eery, presenting a sonic universe full of surprises and possibilities, of sensitive enthusiasm and hesitating joy, and at times of sad acceptance or paralysing terror... Beautiful, challenging and rewarding music." [4]
