Press:
Reinhard Köchl (Jazzthing):
"Strakhof is such a meticulous selfless young visionary who pays careful
attention to the overall sound created. His gentle, wavy, grooving ‘Elegy
for Africa’ features trumpet shooting star Nils-Petter Molvær
as well as multi-reed player Denney Goodhew.
An impressive dense tapestry of percussive and marimba-heavy
Afrojazz, over which the bassist calmly plays: the mixture completely fits.
It is also an album with no prominent guests and only one message:
The star is the team."
