Critical reception[edit]

Tatyana Zamirovskaya from the weekly BelGazeta on its pages noted that the album is associated with Sting, Phil Collins, and Mark Knopfler, and the compositions on it are “refined and melancholic jazz rock with folk elements.”[7]


WASP from the music newspaper Muzykalnaya Gazeta heard on the CD soft pop rock, more harmonious than the one that the band Novi Ierusalim performs, and praised the work of producer Tim Spransy, while songs from the disc also reminded the critic the works of Sting and Phil Collins.[8]
