Insightful reviews below:

 “The entire album tells a riveting, lively, adventurous story (I particularly like Walking, and I enjoyed the structured pandemonium/comedy in Fatherhood). Dust is just so stirring at the end of such a fascinating journey. Simply beautiful.” – Jessica Aksoy, NY

‪“I didn’t think in 2018 we could still make contemporary music so effective and interesting.
‪This new album by Billy Martin, one of my favorite artists, both as a musician and as a “creative” in general (his painting are extraordinary), presents itself as a new lifeblood in the field of experimentation: combining research in unsuspected fields with a late romanticism that recalls the light melancholy of the woods, it’s not easy and I find this project as a serious and touching proposal. ‪Thanks Billy once again for your expressiveness disclosed.” – ‪Alessandro Rusignuolo,‪ Rome, Italy

“…the prepared piano pieces sound so much like a piano player and another percussionist … some of the people I’ve played it for were sure it was two separate musicians … some beautiful Money Jungle era and Messiaen moments in there.” – Luke Augusta, Kent, CT
