THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER — January 23, 2012 — by Justin Lowe
“Tightly framed shots, subtle camera movements and constrained blocking build tension, underlined by Heather McIntosh’s excellent, foreboding score.”
VARIETY — January 21, 2012 — by Justin Chang
“Heather McIntosh’s surging orchestral score imbues the banal horror of the proceedings with a genuinely tragic dimension” – Justin Chang

Heather and Butchy Fuego featured on Paper Mag blog.
“Attendees were welcomed by a suite of compositions inspired by winter, written and performed by Butchy Fuego (of Pit er Pat) and cellist Heather McIntosh (who’s the house cellist for Elephant 6 Collective and has played with a ton of bands, including Animal Collective, Cat Power, Lil Wayne). The duo were well-aware of the irony of playing anything winter-inspired in mild L.A. — they even donned coats, scarves and hats to underscore this point. Their performance featured hauntingly spare drums and computer-y sounds with looped and re-looped cello.”
