Q Magazine

'...KISMET spans the globe, lovingly and with a loving spirit....There is a cohesion within exploration here...'

'...the gifted Hungarian singer zigzags from Ireland to India, bring[ing] us closer to a 21st-century inevitability --one big worldwide music culture, into which regional sounds are absorbed...'
Entertainment Weekly
