The Sirens Sound
"Shifting Reality is the side project of Hungarian native [ David Pusztai ], a molecular biologist. His debut EP [ Naive Audacity ] was released on the 30th of August 2014 and contains cinematic ambient atmospheres which easily competes with the likes of [ Stellardrone ], [ Oyaarss ], [ Talvihorros ], [ EUS ], [ Claro De Luna ], [ Startle The Heavens ] and really the best and the biggest in the underground music scene.
Shifting Reality is more of an interstellar application. The kind of music I personally listen when I’m off for a long drive or when I just want to be on my own and undisturbed. I must admit David Pusztai has excelled in the art of creating ambient sound that causes neither sleepiness nor liveliness. It’s the kind of sound that throws you straight in the middle of a trance, a trance that is undeniably different and unexplainable at the same time. I guess the secret here lies in finding balance between recurrences and haunting tunes. Check it out."
Music Gleaner
"Shifting Reality sets a scene with minimal sounds, subtle instrumentation and some rather humid synths that hold chords for a very long time. With an EP, such as Naive Audacity, it would appear that the artist set out to create sound-spaces that deliver you from reality and put you in either a meditative state or another world. Naive Audacity accomplishes both with it’s short trio of songs."
Stereofox
"The third and last track serves as an open end to Naive Audacity. The dark and heavy ambient reminds me so much of the movie Valhalla Rising. The film takes place in 1000 AD, life is short, nasty and brutal, there is almost no dialogue yet every scene captures your full attention as you are being completely dominated by the film's mood. If I can put in this way, "Doubts of the Devil" is my first audio deja vu."
