“Argentine composer Pablo Ablanedo makes a disarmingly gentle but firm debut notable more for his ascetic, introspective writing than his low-profile piano. This band plays the through-composed and chamber-like pieces understatedly rather than in-your-face, slowly unfolding a mature, inclusive world vision.”
(4 Stars) Fred Bouchard, Down Beat Magazine (USA)

“Complessivamente From Down There emerge come un disco intriso di colori caldi, ritmi latini, non di meno swinganti, con accordi di sapore struggente e malinconico.”
(4 Stars) ISABELLA MEI, ALL ABOUT JAZZ (Italy).
