In his review for Allmusic, Brian Olewnick notes that "Baptista has a assembled a group both light on its feet and capable of negotiating the trickiest of rhythmic passages and deliriously romantic melodies with wit, enthusiasm, and grace. Highly recommended".[2]

gollark: Yes, exactly.
gollark: Maybe you could have an `os.flashBIOS` thing instead of making it use a file.
gollark: `shell.allow_startup` wouldn't apply to them, for instance.
gollark: Anyway, I think there wouldn't be any *security* downsides to having CC boot custom BIOS files now, although maybe some usability ones?
gollark: There are no* downsides!
