With the first CD under his name he is stepping in the footprints of the great bassists/composers in Jazz – from Charles Mingus through Stanley Clarke, Peter Kowald to Avishai Cohen. In short: Jonathan Robinson plays himself on Spatial Stasis and in this way creates his own musical universe for himself – and for his musicians and audience: Out of space, deep into space, real in motion. As you like it. Let yourself be seduced!“ Carina Prange, Jazzdimensions.de
„Jonathan Robinson überzeugt derweil mit zurückhaltendem und dennoch prägnantem Bassspiel: Behände wechselt er zwischen Zupfen, Schlagen und Streichen und stiftet Basis und Zusammenhalt.“ Kiele Zeitung
„Robinson verfügt über eine solide Technik, und seine solistische Darbietungen mit dem Bogen gehören zu dem Höhepunkten des Konzerts.“ Louis Reitz, Weiden
" Jonathan Robinson, a bassist with a big sound who is as capable of melodic arco work as he is of swinging hard, " John Kelman, All About Jazz
"Robinson lays down a rhythmic foundation, but he manages to interject intricate phraseology to move the performance up several notches on the improvised music scale. His backdrops behind the soloing of Burk become featured events on their own, although they are not in competition with the piano. Robinson makes his statements an integral part of the three-way communiqué that continually wraps the totality of the sound in the warm glow of his bass." Frank Rubolino, All About Jazz
