[1][2][3] Steve Futterman of The New Yorker called Taylor "resourceful and responsive as ever," while describing Settles and Podgurski as "two players who share his inclination and ability to shift easily from serenity to improvisational fervor."

He wrote: "The trio's animated interplay commands attention throughout the set, but the concluding piece, 'Between Sound and Silence,' is a most satisfying endgame: a carefully modulated and, in its hymnlike conclusion, poignant exchange among shrewd individualists who cohere as a band.

"[10] In a review for Point of Departure, Troy Collins wrote: "The trio's coiled interplay commands attention throughout the set, but the group also excels at minimalism... No one record easily encapsulates Taylor's wide-ranging artistry.

With Podgurski and Settles by his side however, The Daily Biological covers a lot of fertile ground, making this a most promising debut for the Chad Taylor Trio.

I wouldn't say this is a groove record but it has a head bobbing intensity to it but is no way just wild futile anarchy... Worth wrapping your weary ears around more than a few times.
