‘Englishman Rupert Leighton has a way with making his piano dance, whether to digital bass and rhythmical programs or to lavish cymbal and horn formations. The album is a synthesis of Jamiroquai-like beats and Chopin’s rattling piano flitters…club/dance jazz that forms great escapes to plunge into and feel free. It’s music whose elements are familiar, but have never been arranged like this before’ – (JAZZ REVIEW.COM)

‘Rupert Leighton plays some of the funkiest keyboards you will hear anywhere. He’s returned with a fresh collection of fusion flavoured jazz that is sure to get him noticed.’ – (SMOOTH JAZZ THERAPY, UK)

‘A young genius - he opens new perspectives in contemporary jazz. Intelligent arrangements and consistent conversion of ideas, talent and acquired mastership make this album something special in the music world.’ – (SMOOTHJAZZ.DE)
