“Deep grooves and a chill atmosphere make for a worthwhile listen. Hit play. Trust me.”

— Wave Hello Machine, RN

“The Shimmer Effect has thoroughly impressed me time and again. Their collaborations are unlike the rest! Truly a spiritual journey!!!”

— Blume Choon, Branchout Endorsement

“Not sure how you do it (besides having a great deal of talent), but I'm glad you share all of these gems with us. Epic work by two of the best in the business.”

— ShortBusMusic, looperman.com

“Nice work, amazing experience listening to your sound, unique and stylish.”

— Verbal Kint, Fandalism

“Top shelf trip music. Even better than their first album.”

— Transcendental Strangiato, FB

“Fall in this breakbeat adventure pushed by deep soundscapes to change your hidden realities into atmospheric headmovies!”

— Reviews & Recommendations, timelessexcursionsrecords

“Not taking anything away from Uranometria, which is a classic in its own right, but there is a definite maturing in sound and overall execution that can be heard and felt throughout this album. Mechanosensitive would make a great soundtrack to a futuristic thriller or perhaps, even better, the soundtrack to the sci-fi adaptation of The Lord of the Rings.”

— Chief, Bushmen Records

“You two together are a force.. Top notch arrangement and production.”

— PeteJonTebar , looperman.com

“These aren't songs, they are distant lands...”

— Burning Ships , RN fan

“Man, your music just keeps getting better, fresher every time I listen to it. You guys are stellar at what you do. Keep it coming!”

— Pete Tebar , Fandalism

“You guys are simply awesome and currently, one of my biggest sources of inspiration and not to mention, favourite artists!!!”

— CyberSon, looperman.com

“Hipoetry. Rythmes and sounds experiments are perfectly assembled. Mixed. Sometimes it goes harder and louder. Part of the unique style of this Uranometria. Spinal Flow, Under Water Falls and Uranometria are the hits of this hip release. Download. Decompress twice. Listen.”

— www.wasamix.com

“Terrific professional sound and feel”

— TonyKnight, looperman.com

“the Shimmer Effect is an awesome collab that always fascinates - beauty + respect and 1000 favs”

— MStokes, looperman.com

“The extact style of the album is hard to pinpoint, with traces of trip-hop and idm coming through, but what stands out is that is a meticulously crafted album from start to finish, taking you on a sonic journey through valleys of deep moods and mountains teeming with hidden energy ”

— Bushmen Records, Uranometria Debut Album Release

“..every track so far is full of a genuine vibe, and the production is pro, and unified throughout,kudos mes amis...”

— Simmer Down, Uranometria review

“BIG wild gifts - respect, appreciation, sincere inspiration on all levels - glad to be on earth and living now hearing this transmission”

— Michael Stokes, Uranometria review

“you know the principle 'as above, so below'”

— MStokes, looperman.com

“You have a gift for layering different stories into your music, which makes it sound like an active 'experience' rather than passive 'entertainment'. Very dramatic, thought provoking, and yet always funky and smooth.”

— NUADA, looperman.com

“There is an "Effect" in Music, it's called Love, there is a "Shimmer" and it is called Sound, this equals the quality of Music one hears in Shimmer Effect.”

— Shade Law, Stick.com Review

“Shimmer Effect is a rare example in contemporary musical arts...a collaboration of artists whose work is greater than the sum of its parts.”

— Maggy Mjolnir , Branchout Endorsement

“..I like the Shimmer Effect, consistently impressive!”

— Cait Collins , Branchout Endorsement

“The Shimmer Effect has a sound that can fill the entire room and rock your eardrums... They’re bound to have an effect on you! ”

— imergeandsee, Music Review, http://music.imergeandsee.com
