Critical reception

Ian Gittins from Melody Maker wrote, "U96 are the German studio boffins who made the portentous novelty house hit, 'Das Boot', complete with marine sound effects, submarine noises and the legendary lyric Techno, techno, a good year before 2 Unlimited, a huge hit across Europe. 'Inside Your Dreams' is on more of a HiNRG tip and doesn't manage to be remotely as compelling and absurdly addictive." [1]
