“The three works on this enterprising release showcase a genuinely American composer, Anthony Paul De Ritis… whose music lies rooted in its determination to meld science with humanity. De Ritis draws on the resources of his acoustic-electronic laboratory and applies them with a healthy enthusiasm for engaging tunes and harmonies, lively beat and a love of Technicolor.”
     — Laurence Vittes, Gramophone (October 1, 2012)

“The mixture of influences, references and textures is both blindingly apparent and blindingly gorgeous.”
      — Olivia Giovetti, WQXR (June 11, 2012)
