    There's a lot going on but Georgopoulos makes it all feel unhurried and effortless. [Aug 2018, p.24]

    It is truly cosmic music, one that defies categorisation.

    A sweet, herbal fug hanging over proceedings, Zebra joins the dots between blissed-out Balearica, trippy kosmische, Eastern and Afro vibes and spacey jazz. [Sep 2018, p.91]

    Zebra represents Georgopoulos's minimalism at its most luxurious--a near hour-long expanse of adroit architecture and rhythmic topography.

    As unconventional as it is relaxing, Zebra is perhaps Arp's most inviting sound-world yet.

    Zebra finds Georgopoulos in purely instrumental mode, boundary-blurring jazz, African, Balearic and kosmische influences with mixed results. [Summer 2018, p.106]

    There is a very fine line between contentment and the utter absence of feeling, and while Zebra's production and mix is flawless throughout, it falls too often on the wrong side of that line.
