    He delivers a stirring counterpoint to Quartet with an atmospheric combination of organic and digital feels that offers a stirring dual portrait of the landscape of his motherland.
  2. Boston Globe
    Feb 1, 2012
    80
    Ripatti's restraint is still his strongest suit; he's not so much leading the way as lighting it.
  3. The Quietus
    Feb 1, 2012
    80
    It offers astonishingly rich pickings--its pillowy-soft surfaces might have all the edges filed away, but there's a stunning amount of detail packed into each of its eight tracks.
