“What’s exciting—and impressive—about Spinifex’s music is the way the group manages to absorb and synthesize a variety of influences [and] produce something greater than a simple grab-bag of styles… they’re also able to foreground technical mastery via incredibly tight, complex structures and at the same time leave room for freer play and discovery.” – Eric McDowell, The Free Jazz Collective
“This heavily international group specializes in a collective meshing, combining the precision of composed themes with ample leeway for crashing over the barriers, splattering down onto a grassy field of wild improvisatory freedom.” – Martin Longley, All About Jazz
