"Japan's answer to Paul Motian, Ichiro Onoe is perhaps the next great lyrical drummer of our time." Bop-N-Jazz / Brent BLACK "Drummer with a great melodic sensitivity and always able to stimulate a swing lively " Culture JAZZ / Thierry GIARD
"...in love with cheerful melodies swaying in between modern bop and straight 8th note jazz." JAZZ MAGAZINE JAZZ MAN / Eric QUENOT
"...he breaks in with conviction of his compositions between swing («Ermitage»), funk («Playground»), free («What Do You Want») and balladeers («Wind Child», «Recesses of the Heart»). And run throughout the session as a leader : the feeling." JAZZ NEWS / Bruno PFEIFFER
"...an album where the drums draw the luxuriant landscapes of different paths and atmospheres which have always a strong and powerful declaration of love for jazz." Sun Ship / Franpi BARRIAUX
"...his support is bouncy, his energy is finely channeled. Vibrant and carnal, invigorating, this jazz album sketches a story with subtle colors ; an apparent simplicity, a marked fluidity yet an authentic declaration of love for this music." Les Dernières Nouvelles du Jazz / Sophie CHAMBON "…is it necessary to say once again that Ichiro Onoe is a magnificent drummer that it's time to discover ? " Citizen Jazz / Denis DESASSIS |
