"Using a combination of hypnotic, looped guitar sounds, the irresistible crash and clatter of percussions and a variety of sampled wind instruments, the trio created an eccentric but intimate atmosphere. The listeners appreciated KY's music in a relaxed manner, most remaining seated, bringing to mind the cosy atmosphere at Kaffe Matthews' performance in Avanto 2000."
