"The perfect welcome packet to the world of Mendilow: gorgeous, enchanting sound and technically rich music wrapped up in a fun, playful atmosphere."
-Bay Windows
"Catchy licks that almost instantly have listeners moving along to the groove…the glory of what [Mendilow] does is finding a common ground among different cultures. And that's what makes his music so exciting."
