Critical reception
[edit | edit source]Exclaim! wrote that "the music sounds so full and complex that you could lose your mind trying to figure out what all of the different noises are."[7] The Independent called the album "the missing link between Badly Drawn Boy and Squarepusher, with the former's wistful introversion shredded into digital bricolage by the latter's cut-up techniques."[1] The Sunday Times wrote that Capitol K "has astonishing sampling/sequencing/ programming skills, but he transforms his hours spent hunched over an Atari into music bursting with life."[8]
