“A showboat of a performer, Lumanovski is an adventurous, modern-minded front man who leads his band through a varied terrain of Balkan, Turkish and Romany selections, spiked with jazz and Western styles.” - Cristina Black, Time Out New York
"Lumanovski and Senlendirici proved spectacular players who had listened hard to Coltrane and Dolphy -- especially Lumanovski, his sound very soprano sax, lots of burr and flutter and overtone." - Robert Christgau, Salon.com
"They have taken the ground-breaking Turkish fusion band Laço Tayfa's music as their jumping off point and continued in that spirit of exploration… eclectic and full of inquisitiveness." - Michal Shapiro, The Huffington Post
“Frontman clarinetist Ismail Lumanovski is an extraordinary player in his own right, leading the group through a blistering series of haunting dance numbers and a couple of one or two-chord jams that the players used to show off their sizzling chops.” - Alan Young, Lucid Culture Blog
