"Here is something so organic, so naturally flowing, creating the perfect atmosphere of relaxation, melancholy, and total harmony, something that is impossible not to love. It is simple in its perfection, but not simplistic - freed away from fanciness, but very sincere, pure, ethereal, and replete with human emotion. I have never heard music quite like this. Absolutely amazing."
~ Egle Januleviciute, concert pianist
"...a wonderful CD and I am very,very moved by your aesthetic. It truly is beautiful, sophisticated and genuine...a work of art that comes from the deepest places within."
~ Bryan Pezzone, pianist/composer
"You both channeled something divinely inspired - the aural experience is breathtaking and the otherworldly landscapes spiritually visceral in their impact. There is nothing contrived and ego-driven in this gorgeous music. So looking forward being carried through the complete oeuvre."
~ Tania Gabrielle, Astro-Numerologist, Author, Composer
"The music on this cd is absolutely exquisite; it is both deeply touching and soothing, and offers a special place for the listener to quiet themselves and simply experience music. Meditative, reflective, contemplative, Blue Landscapes truly is an incredible collaboration from two artists whose approach to the songs on this album always feels completely natural and unmanufactured. It is an honest and genuine expression that seems to come straight from their souls—it is music-making at its best."
~ Bridget Hough, pianist
"Blue Landscapes stirs the heart and awakens the mind. Hear, feel and taste the beauty of this place. Robert and Damjan deliver a message unfettered by semantics. The interplay between light and dark speaks to the experience of life as it truly is - a sweet and savory mix of what is, and what we make of it. I'm enjoying this music EVERY TIME I listen. Thank you."
