“Afar isn’t your father’s jazz album, nor does it fit the comfortably into subgenre molds... but it’s undeniably a fantastic album exploring the fringes of jazz, modern classical and post-minimalism, coming from some of the Australian scene’s exciting young talents. Jazz or not, it’s certainly worth your time and attention."

"...I urge anyone even vaguely interested in the album’s styles to press play and allow the duo’s interplay to consume you. There’s a certain fantastical quality to this type of music, and the imaginative nature of the Afar bolsters this feeling throughout the album.”
