Quotes:
| "Archaea is an intriguing contemporary
minimalist album......a sophisticated and beautifully performed
personal expression............a great way to introduce new
composition to younger ears, and to lighten the soul of the
jaded listener." Musicworks (Canada) |
| "What
is clear to me in Dan Joseph's pieces is how he tries different
ideas of minimalism....the performance by the group is brilliant,
precise and fluent at the same time. Especially the first two
pieces show rewarding and fresh ideas." Radioshow "PSYCHE
v/h FOLK." (Belgium) |
| "I put this on an was transported.......The
first reference was the Penguin Café Orchestra –
the sound, vibrancy, joy and tempo. Then I realised that this
was minimalism of a high order........ A fabulous album."
Ampersand (USA) |
"Through and through, this is an outstanding
release."

| "Archaea
knocks one out of the park, meeting Mutable Music’s worthy
goal of releasing music that will 'engage the mind and the heart,'
as well as providing an example of everything that can go deliciously
right with minimalist work. " Startling Moniker (USA) |
"I played this with curiosity and fell
in love with this..... It's an odd mixture of minimalism,
along Steve Reich's early seventies....oriental (eastern Europe),
baroque and even medieval at times.....Think The Lost Jockey
(when is that coming on CD?), Micheal O'Shea and a very mild
Glenn Branca meeting Steve Reich and Micheal Nyman. There
are so many links to so many people, but Joseph knows how
to keep his music fresh."
