MojoJul 28, 2023Fluid, cultured, but never wilfully indulgent, Days In The Desert refuses to sit still. [Sep 2023, p.89]

UncutJul 28, 2023The purposeful "Fast Asleep" or swirling "Dirtmouth" - featuring labelmate/saxophonist James Brandon Lewis - might loosely suit Parker's Chicago collective too. But "Solanin" with Brandee Younger, boasts a lush Cinematic Orchestra elegance, while Daedalus lends "(If You Don't Leave) The City Will Kill You" an irresistibly propulsive energy. [Sep 2023, p.27]
