"If you've ever visited Mendocino County you would have a head start to appreciate saxophonist Jason Robinson's Harmonic Constituent. His week-long retreat to this magnificent Northern California coast inspired this ambitious and diverse recording. Like the rugged territory that inspired Robinson, the multifarious music is both wild and placid, both clement and inclement." - Mark Corroto, All About Jazz "This is a quartet that pulls off something that’s uncommon these days, namely covering a lot of ground while at the same time retaining a communal identity that, while it perhaps inevitably has echoes of the over-exposed line-up of reeds, piano, bass and drums, keeps the ear (or at least these ears) cocked and engaged." - Nic Jones, Jazz Journal UK
