‘The quirky, lyrical, imaginative, arresting, romantic fantasies of Billy Cowie deeply impressed me.’

‘It is the most subtle and bereft solo, lost in sadness and solitude. A body leaning over an abyss, counting on nothing but itself to keep from falling'  
Susanna Temperley on Solos Extr3mos

'Billy Cowie is the Godfather of 3D dance movies'
Gilles Jobin

'Morgen schon' is an almost perfect song. A true masterpiece.
Tony Palmer - Isolde Films

'Beautiful, poetic, sensitive, profound, minimal and essential, esthetically perfect. I lack the words to define what I felt in front of your work'
