Reception

The Allmusic review by Steve Leggett awarded the album 4 stars stating: "Nothing is particularly innovative with this set, but these tracks don't push or pull against themselves, either, and there's a clear joy coming off of the floor as these musicians, all in the early phases of their careers, do what they do with comforting assurance".[4]

gollark: 2 + 2 = 4 -1 = 3 quick maths
gollark: 128 iterations per grid, 1000 iterations total, 16x16 grid, can't even get any with Conway's game of life rule which fill >1/3 of the cells at the end.
