Reviews"...Continues his sonic adventure...mixing zero-gravity beats...with deeply dubby Chicago house....An album of supreme control...", 8 out of 10 - "...May be his best record yet....Not only an ascetic blend of house and jungle; it's also an ingenious fusion of mathematically cool beats and desperately human heat...", 8 out of 10 - "...An album steeped in bleep-techno aesthetics and shaped by the irresistible groove of ancient Chicago house....pushing drum'n'bass far beyond its self-imposed restrictions...", 3 out of 5 - "...Rolling bass&drum gems....a sprawling record full of bizarre turns turning into frothy UK garage house and drawling Massive Attack-ish downtempo cuts...", 3 Out of 5-"...A Mixture of Old Skool Vibes over Slow Breaks and Sparse Deep House Numbers...", 4 out of 5 - "...Joins the dots between house, techno and hip-hop in a truly original, compelling and often spellbinding manner...", "...A Complex and Unique Collection of Futuristic Electronic Music...", "...Excellent....Not drum'n'bass at all. One track is up to speed...but the rest is slow breaks, atmospheric HipHop, Techfunk and, in 'Mine To Give', chartstorming vocal House...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...The king of minimalist drum'n'bass gets himself a proper singer (!) and goes all deep house (!!)..."
