Reviews:

The piano's slippery tone has been diluted, and in a sense it recalls the deep fluidity of, say, William Basinski's Melancholia. Everything is very distinct and at the same time dreamily distant.
— Fluid Radio

M. Ostermeier has long been one of my favorite pianists and modern composers. Deep listens to this record reveal melodies that pull on the heartstrings while creating stirring mood pieces to lose an afternoon in.
— Tome to the Weather Machine

Ostermeier's piano melodies refrain from excess. Their allure doesn’t reside in ornamental detail or the presence of intricate little trills, but for the elegant slopes that carry one chord into another. The self-conscious hesitations and sentimental indulgence that dictate when a note is depressed, and for how long. They are the emotional ore of what Ostermeier wishes to convey, stripped to a state of sincerity.
