"Shepik's got the mind of a pioneer. The rhythmic complexity of his compositions has few parallels in jazz - or any other genre, for that matter. With all his exotic influences, and all his different axes, he makes us rethink what it means to be a guitarist and a musician. There's no telling where he'll go next."
- David Adler, Allaboutjazz.com

"Using what is for most Jazz fans an unusual instrumentation, these three friends combine to create a rare and beautiful masterpiece."
- Blaine Fallis, Jazz.About.com
