"Crystalline piano, clocks, voices, birdsong, water and resonating electronics create a spring-warm sense of place and wonder" MOJO Magazine

“Blending dreamily ambient keyboard melodies with environmental evocations…it offers an attractive distillation of the installation experience. A marker too of rising levels of engagement with auditory histiography in public art” THE WIRE

"Alongside sounds derived from the structure itself the trio seamlessly blend in piano, brass, children at play, birdsong and a bouncing pingpong ball in a quietly affecting sculpture in sound." THE QUIETUS

"Without a shadow of a doubt, Concrete Antenna is one of our records of the year" CAUGHT BY THE RIVER

"This combination of artistic packaging, informative essay and evocative recording is a credit to all of the people involved, from musicians to designers. Even without the visuals, the music impresses; “Church Bells” is especially lovely. " A CLOSER LISTEN
