"Rypdal, never one to pay homage and leave it at that, embraces the advances in technology with the inclusion of keyboards wizard Ståle Storløkken... But the biggest development is the inclusion of Rypdal's son, Marius, handling the electronics and samples ... Rypdal compositions are poised but lyrical, using silences to create an other worldly sense of mystery. On the evidence of Vossabrygg, Rypdal is at the top of his game."
(Jazz Review)

"This is no facile nod to the past. Rypdal's own son is at hand to lay down crackling electronic interludes, so that we suddenly hand brake turn through drum'n'bass textures, while Rypdal himself, for all his love of McLaughlin, is very much his own man. It's increasingly rare to hear him on record playing in this kind of 'jazz' context ... so the looser forms of Vossabrygg are a welcome space to stretch out in his sky-soaring style. A welcome run out from the great guitar man, but this is one brew he's particularly whipped up for Mikkelborg whose haunting trumpet is the key sound throughout."
