PRESS QUOTES
“Pauline Oliveros has been a figure of the classical and electronic avantgarde for decades … her careers as writer, composer, and performer have been dedicated to the exploration of music as a psychosomatic means of expanding consciousness … Her music is a fine example of eschewing artifice as a means of arriving at richer art: the persistent, undulating mass of sound that she elicits from her accordion brings to mind the image of a raw sine wave—the simplest visual avatar of sound.” — Tiny Mixtapes

“A unity of purpose and multi-hued sound that renders an engrossing listening experience.” — Textura (review for Duane Pitre)

“The music scrapes and rattles along beautifully, the musicians interacting with sympathy and precision, creating images of lonely marshlands, desolate yet captivating. Abstract voices add another layer to the compositions, wringing yet more emotion from the pieces.” — Terrascape (review for Teresa Wong)

“Listening to it, you feel like you are inside some cyclopean subterranean grotto … its bejeweled walls glistening with an alien luster [and] sounding like something that shimmers … iridescent shapes bend conventional pulse-based time and impose their own paradoxical temporality, where constant movement teems within a vast stasis.” — The Wire (review for Ellen Fullman)
