"They write and record melodic pop/rock songs....full of chiming guitars and harmony vocals singing romantic and uplifting lyrics... is potentially appealing not only to new listeners, but also to fans of its antecedents....Witness to Connection could be slipped into a CD changer with There Are But Four Small Faces, Something Else by the Kinks, and the Rolling Stones' Flowers, set to random sequencing, and it would fit right in."
- All Music Guide, 4 out of 5 Stars

"Morakestra play the kind of irresistible garage-tinged rock that movies about young love in the hot city summer are made for. With catchy hooks, bittersweet melodies, and lyrics that recall the best psychedelic stadium hits of the 70s."

"Rambling, vaguely math-y songs that often spin in circles before they come together. There's plenty to explore here."
- Aiding and Abetting

"Exquisite production of genres bending light and sound... The Mora boys have really carved out a unique sound."
- The Latino Slant

"Nothing feels alien or indistinct, rather it all fits like a pattern," absolutepunk.net wrote of the album's disparate elements, while praising their "lack of pretense and their apparent love for what they do."

"The Morakestra's biggest selling points on Witness To Connection are the addictive guitar riffs that populate every track" "Songs show both pop sensibility and a unique style that belongs solely to The Morakestra" "Witness To Connection is a powerful effort"
- Atlanta Music Guide

"The Morakestra' s sound is an interesting mix of Americana, spacey psychedelic sounds and jangly indie rock"
