Reception
The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3½ stars, stating, "An unusual but beautiful item in John Abercrombie's discography, and a coming out for Mendoza, Animato signals a different direction for the ECM label, enabling electronic sounds in a way they had never fully embraced prior".[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 4 stars, stating, "one of Abercrombie's most cohesive and swinging sets. He sounds completely in control of the music".[3]

gollark: Oh, so have beginner versions for only a few channels? Makes sense. Although it should be automated. And I think it only makes sense to restrict access to channels you are actually going to make a noob version for.
gollark: Okay, continue.
gollark: Yes, you already wrote that.
gollark: <#426054105577029654> and stuff too?
