Tour Pictures : Wuppertal - Sardinia - Moscow
"There are performances that remind you what are the basic and most important essences of making and listening to music—the sheer and innocent joy of playfulness, the healing power of such an emotional communication, the communal feeling of participating in a magical ritual, and the feeling of inspiring elation that lasts after the concert. The recent Digital Primitives trio show in Jerusalem was one of these great ones. It really does not matter how many times you have seen this trio before—the magic is still there." March 2010 - All about Jazz - Eyal Hareuveni

"Digital Primitives is a hard-funkin' blues trio that grinds on free jazz. really unlike anything I've heard in jazz right now. Digital Primitives revealed improvisation as a soulful journey. If I have to holler, dance and writhe, I will follow Digital Primitives wherever they go."
National Public Radio - Lars Gotrich
"... twisted distillations of rhythmic/melodic essences" Jazz Institute - Dan Melnick
"After several listenings, one can tell that Digital Primitives are really storytellers and their collective stories have depth and feeling."
Richard Karmin – Hartford Curant
"Defying boundaries: The experimental trio Digital Primitives makes music in the cracks, bringing together outward-bound improvisations and epigrammatic compositions with funky grooves and atmospheric mystery that carry the heavy air of ritual. The difficulty in defining the music is among its most compelling strengths."
Detroit press - Mark Stryker
"If you're looking for music that separates itself from usual run-of-the-mill jazz recordings, you're not likely to hear anything quite like this.”
All about jazz – Jeff Stockton
“Scrappy New York improvising trio the Digital Primitives bring a rigorous and thoroughly modern approach to primeval blues-based grooves, and on their second album, Hum Crackle & Pop (Hopscotch), their focus is sharper than ever.”
Chicago Reader – Peter Margasak
