DJ FEEDBACK
'Fuck me, this is amazin’. Really up my street... so out there. Best thing I’ve heard on the label. It’s got disco influences, jazz, electronica. Well done man, love it' YOGI HAUGHTON
'Gave one of the tracks a spin on my show last week. Thanks for sending.' BILL BREWSTER
'I really like this album, Flower and Paradise are my favourite' LEO MAS
'I like Paradise’ AL KENT
‘Woo this is tasty. DEFO playing on my next radio show. The label’s A&R is getting better and better. HM has been putting out some dope stuff and this one seems really good quality’ RED RACK’EM
‘Paradise and Flower sounding good’ NICK THE RECORD
‘Tunes sound great!’ PHIL MISON
‘Going to include Paradise and Flower on my Sunday Ibiza global radio show PHAT PHIL COOPER (Nu Northern Soul)
‘Very nice album with influences from many different genres. I especially like To Be Free with nice synths and guitar cutting, and Flower, which is a chill vibe’ KZA (Mule Musiq, Endless Flight)　
'100% correct about the ALFOS potential of To Be Free!' SEAN JOHNSTON (A Love From Outer Space)
'Stunning, will fit perfectly with the vibe of my radio show’ S/A/M (Music For Dreams, DK; Playa Del Sol, Ibiza)
'Stellar work, i'll make a bet that Flowers is a Balaeric classic this summer' DRIBBLER (Breakfast Club, Ibiza)
‘It's cool in a nice smelling psycho sense, it was a very DEEP sound that I couldn't produce. Congrats!’ ALTZ (Altzmusica)
‘Paradise is my jam, it's deep, sunny and never boring. I'm interested to see how this will work on the dance floor. Overall a great album with solid composition and impressive use of live instruments!’ SOBRIETY (fka Chloé Juliette)
'Very tidy selection' ASTROJAZZ (Kelburn Garden Party, Wee Dub, Samedia Shebeen, Disco Makossa)
‘This is a lovely release. Follows on from New Experience in the best way possible. It's got lots of vibes going on but holds together as a cohesive piece of work. Love it’ JAMIE THOMSON (La Cheetah, Glasgow)
‘To Be Free is a track i could imagine Andy Weatherall playing in one of his sets at A Love From Outer Space’ KIRSTIE PATON aka She-Bang Rave Unit (Threads Radio, Radio Magnetic)
'LOVING THIS RELEASE! Paradise is one of the best tracks I’ve heard in a long time. Loving the jazzy vibes, particularly as its dancey rather than being one of those tracks that disappears up its own proverbial as some jazzy stuff is prone to. Lovely variety in the tracks and will definitely be rinsing a few of these, with Paradise being the pick of the bunch for me' DAVID ELDERS
"Seriously, all the tracks were great. I really think Kota is a genius. Especially Rhythm, it's the best in recent years. Paradise, Tropical, the last song Flower, everything was just great. Thank you for the wonderful tracks" SUNGA
