‘Energetic and at times downright cheeky … as accessible as it is intellectual and as felt as it is thought’ Andy Robson, Jazzwise, 2009

‘Unequivocal beauty and genre-busting writing … transcending the contemporary classical realm … progressive, but in a completely different sense … Bruford is the ideal choice for Riley.‘ John Kelman, All About Jazz, 2009

‘Restless, intricate rhythms … absorbing and gently hypnotic. The avant garde shows its happy face.’ John Bungey, The Times, 2009

‘Takes the sound-world, gestures and techniques from classical, rock and jazz, and makes no apologies for inhabiting the cracks between all three.’ 991 sleevenotes, 2009

‘Can and does groove like hell … at all times Skin and Wire operates on a high level of musical interest … one of the years most important fusion hybrid offerings.’ Gabblegate Music Review, 2009

Reviews:

‘Poised and engaging …. Nygård’s voice meshes beautifully with Riley’s spare orchestrations’.
Guardian, Nov 200

‘Something extraordinarily strange and beautiful.’.
BBC Radio 1, Jan 2009

‘mesmeric vocals … complex and mysterious … effortlessly lovely. Recommended.’.
Boomkat, Mar 2009

‘icy-breath intimacy … warmth and passion. Fold takes some time to unravel but is worth all the effort..’.
Jazzwise, Dec 2008

‘The music thrives on the tension between fragmented, minimalist instrumental textures and the ecstatic, lyrical melodies that float across them, suggesting the voice of the impassioned individual surrounded by the indifferent chatter of 21st-century life. Sassy, sophisticated new music’.
