    Those expecting an ultra-stripped-back affair will be in for a surprise too, for although the album sustains and refines Sheppard’s core penchant for pointillist minimalism, Vertical Land is also arguably his most ambitious and elaborate statement to date.

    It's charm lies in the warm melodies Sheppard and his supporting cast coax from their mostly acoustic instruments, including marimbas and vibraphones. [Aug 2015, p.112]

    More spacious acoustic currents entwine to create softer, calming reveries every bit as difficult to resist. [Jul 2015, p.90]
