Reviews:

... In their work "Drif­ting," avant-garde mu­sic­ians Ro­man Ley­kam and Frank Mark cre­ate sur­real sound­scapes, which they occa­sion­ally ex­pand with Asian sounds and samples. This is not easy listen­ing, so I recom­mend listen­ing to the al­bum first.
Stephan Schelle - Dez 2025 - musikzirkus-magazin.de

... An hour-long sound journey between worlds, timeless and spaceless, cinemascopic meandering sound waves, this time with strong Asian/Indian ethno-world music elements such as Punjab curry and gamelan patterns.
Jürgen Parr - Nov 2025 - Doppelpunkt - Ma­ga­zin für Kul­tur in Nürn­berg - Fürth - Er­lan­gen.

... In an age of over­pro­duced in­tro­spec­tion, "Drif­ting" feels re­fresh­ing­ly un­hurried, al­most monk-like in its cla­ri­ty. It’s mu­sic that re­fu­ses spec­ta­cle - the kind that pre­fers to hum in the back­ground of your blood­stream ra­ther than the fore­ground of your play­list. An al­bum for those who find move­ment in still­ness, or who sus­pect that the void hums back when you listen hard en­ough.
Vito Camarretta - Nov 2025 - CHAIN D.L.K.
