Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3½ stars stating "The two lengthy improvisations are mostly on one-chord repetitive rhythmic vamps stated by the bass, featuring sound explorations and plenty of electronics. Only on the last half of the second medley does Priester himself emerge a bit from the electronic sounds. One is reminded of Bitches Brew, since that is an obvious influence, but also Hancock's group and Weather Report. The music develops slowly, but listeners with patience will enjoy the blending of the many different voices in this unusual musical stew".[2]

gollark: I do not think I agree with their improvement plan. I'll be writing my own manifesto thing.

gollark: They *may* be mildly evil and also appear to make claims to objectivity which I don't think are valid.
