Press:

"The young lion from berlin has found a language which sounds like a walk through the work-site surrounded streets of his city. An Album filled with surprising turns that documents the change of his hometown unsentimentaly and that fits well for it."
Wolf Kampann
"Erdmann´s sound makes tons of weight flowt in the air.He has learned his lesson of tradition, understood Coleman and Coltrane like not many others.But he is not standing there on stage to tell us all the things he knows about jazz. No, he is looking for a common lanuage with the audience."
Tagesspiegel
"Avantarde-Jazz and fun to listen!"
