Contents

John Kelman in his review states, "...the unique language that he has developed over the course of his previous two efforts, Electronique Noire and Light Extracts, would imply a more formidable technique at play that is simply so subtle that it is subsumed in the sheer musicality of the work. And that's exactly how it should be..." [3]

Reception

The review of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album 5 stars (dice). [2]
