“For J-Sound Jason Schneider put together a quartet that doesn't slip on the dazzling parquet of his compositions. In all of his
own compositions, Schneider relies primarily on energy. That works both in a breakneck neobop like the opener 'Swift To React'
and in the bizarre sound creations that characterize a high-energy number like 'Third Quarter'. But there are also a few quieter
pieces in which the band sounds downright pensive. " - Jazzthing
“The young man from Frankfurt (Jason Schneider) can do a lot. He plays harmoniously colorful and atmospheric. He is technically good and virtuoso, plays up to the high register and his sound is versatile " - Jazz'N'More
