“By far the most interesting player on the set, Vandeweyer also emerges as the most interesting composer, with the oddly melancholy “Fucked Up” and the genre-shuffling “Hole in My Sole.” [****] Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings (IMI Kollektief, “Snug as a Gun”)
“Belgian vibraphonist, Els Vandeweyer, began her musical career on the classical path, focusing on contemporary pieces while studying at a performing arts school in Antwerp. The IMI Kollektief’s sole recording, “Snug as a Gun” (Clean Feed, 2006), offers the only extended evidence of Vandeweyer's work; while the songs are spiky and agular, her harmonically rich, jagged lines recall the golden era of Blue Note Records, when Bobby Hutcherson was a fixture.” - Peter Margasak, “Chicago Reader.”
"In particular, my ears keep finding Els Vandeweyer and her vibes; there's something I can't put my finger on that keeps her from sounding like other jazz vibists I've heard. And her tune “Fucked Up” is my favorite track." - KFJC Online
"Unafraid of tradition, the IMI Kollektief mines rich territory with Vandeweyer's vibes evoking the experimental zeal of the more adventurous 1960's Prestige and Blue Note sessions." – All About Jazz
