"...it’s clear that Space has evolved dramatically, locking into a tight ensemble sound, tightening the fuzzier strands from the first record into an imperturbable force. Each improvised performance, including the one on Embrace the Space, has been unique, pushing into discrete sound worlds, but what has united them for me is the way Bergman and Lund have honed an almost telepathic rapport that allows them to sculpt infectious yet elusive shape-shifting grooves—a gift for a pianist as versatile as Ullén, who rides those rhythms with uncanny confidence and experimentation." — Peter Margasak
