In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states "Piano Vortex is the most intimate recording Shipp has made in a long while. He looks back through the music's history and speaks with it, as it informs his own extension of it." [1]
The All About Jazz review by Troy Collins says "The trio blends turbulent swing with brooding ambience. Shipp's writing embodies a dusky, foreboding quality, coloring restless momentum with shades of uncertainty; his pieces veer from still melancholy to tumultuous agitation." [2]
