Here’s the review of Visions by Janet Mawdesley as published in the September 2009 edition of Conscious Living Magazine:

Delightful, refreshing and uplifting are just some of the words that can be used to describe this musical smorgasbord of compositions presented through the medium of acoustic piano.

Effortlessly you move from the mellow Birth of Love to the more melodic Sky, with each of the pieces forming meaning based on how the listener perceives the tones and cadences of each offering. In this first solo recording, ade ishs has managed to compose in a collation of jazz and classical idioms to form an effortless presentation of tracks designed to be listened to in a range of different mediums: from relaxation, contemplation and a teasing fascination, to down right fun. ade ishs’s Indonesian culture has also been woven through the music like a gentle wraith drifting in and out, bringing with it the subtle hint of the East.
