EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Blink's debut recording, "the epidemic of ideas", is 12 original compositions pushing the boundaries of jazz, funk, future music and electronica. Blink. Is a musical collective steeped in the youthful examination of the time honored tradition of jazz. They came together in the fall of 2006 with the purpose of coming up with new ideas and improvisations. They have performed in venues spanning North America, Asia, Europe, Africa and South America. Their compositions have been commissioned and performed by the International Contemporary Ensemble, the Peoria Ballet Company, and have received awards from the Illinois Arts Council. If you love jazz, experimentation and new approaches to music, then you shouldn´t miss this remarkable CD.

REVIEW
"four stars"- Downbeat Magazine --- Downbeat Magazine

"Aside from the general aggressive, post-rock, post-jazz underground feel, there s pretty tunes here, lots of slow, quiet parts, bebop flow, and even some walking bass. Another way to hear jazz. " --The Boston Phoenix
