“Filled with warmth and drenched with goodness, it takes me back to that calm morning years ago when I first felt the true connection between the sea and music. I am not sure that’s what Gibbs and Reynolds had in mind when constructing this little gem, but isn’t that what wonderful music does? Transports you to places deep in the mind.”
- Fluid Radio
“In Passing is instrumentally lush and genuinely emotive; it may only be an EP, but it makes a lovely introduction to the work of this up-and-coming pair.”
- A Closer Listen
“Elements of ambient, electronica, and modern classical are all blended together seamlessly in well crafted arrangements with a sweet melancholic undercurrent.”
- Stationary Travels
“Imperfection is one of its distinct features. But what could be a weakness in other places appears as a strength here. All those designed defects give the work a warm, human feel which surrounds the listener.”
- SeekSickSound
“If you love modern classical, I strongly suggest to check the debut EP from Steve Gibbs and Cyrus Reynolds "In Passing".”
- Fabrizio Paterlini
“Simply put, a beautiful collection of songs that just grip you all the way. I will dance and shout on the rooftops about it until I’m in my grave.”
- Row Boat
