LE MONDE, Sylvain Siclier
"For the past fifteen years, saxophonist Olivier Temime has been shaking up the jazz scene in France – and elsewhere – with music that draws its references from bop, soul jazz, jazz rock… With The Intruder, Temime, with Vincent Artaud as co-composer of the eleven themes, also incorporates rock and pop aspects. The whole is rich, bursting with vitality, a little crazy… Exciting."
JAZZ MAGAZINE, Fred Goaty
"Shock, therefore, because of: freshness, invention, breaking down barriers, freedom and meticulous production. And finally, and above all, "The Intruder" is a plea for the joyful existence of a (im)purely instrumental jazz with which we always want to travel. As far and as long as possible."
VIBES
"Olivier Temime's music overflows, breaks free from constraints, pushes boundaries. The Intruder unleashes a barrage of new ideas in every corner of a session full of surprises."
