    Jassbusters is the first release where Mockasin is accompanied by a band--and it’s a revelation. His usual exaggeratedly washy, reverby sound is anchored and evolves into something fuller, groovier, twangier. ... Jassbusters deserves a big fat red marker pen A.

    Jasssbusters' steady output of blue-tinted melodies make it an exceedingly easy listening experience.

    It reaffirms Mockasin's status as the maddest biscuit in the box. [Nov 2018, p.109]

    At times ethereal and romantic, at others eerie and queasy, it's completely different, but equally worthy, addition to this autheur's overlooked and original canon. [Nov 2018, p.18]

    A strange, slow fog settles in over the course of the record, which comes to feel like an album-length exercise in torpor, clouding over some unabashedly gorgeous turns by Mockasin.

    All of the tracks on Mockasin's third album are groovy to a varying degree, and all feature Mockasin's falsetto voice on sparingly full display.
