Cinematic Chromatics Vol. III is the final installment of a trilogy series, and has already been praised as an "...an out- of-this-world blend of jazz, jazztronica, beats, and cinematic music".

His music has been written up as a “great fusion of hip-hop, funk, jazz where Weather Report can sit next to Thundercat”, and track Alpha Bete was included in Spotify’s “Best of Fresh Finds Jazz 2024”.
