There Is Love in You received universal acclaim from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 82, based on 30 reviews. [6] John Bush of AllMusic described There Is Love in You as "a reset album, one where Hebden pares his music down to the essentials" and "the most natural he's sounded on record in years", with "the spartan precision of Philip Glass but also, surprisingly, the warmth and vitality of classic Cluster as well." [7] Chris Martins of The A.V. Club noted that the album continued in the "smoother" musical direction of Hebden's EP Ringer , "and to great effect—if this isn’t the best Four Tet record yet, it's certainly a fresh face for Hebden." [8] Slant Magazine 's Matthew Cole praised There Is Love in You as "his most inviting and accessible set of songs to date", [17] while Q 's Robin Turner wrote that the album "brims with a playful sense of wonder." [14]

Mark Richardson of Pitchfork wrote that There Is Love in You "always has just enough going on to pull you back in any time you feel like relegating it to the background" and "works best taken whole, rather than broken into individual tracks". [13] Ben Thompson of The Observer felt that the album "captures all that was special about dance music's mid-90s heyday". [12] In a mixed review, NME 's Louise Brailey felt that There Is Love in You peaks early with "Love Cry", and that Four Tet "fails to move forward on a nevertheless lovely seventh album". [11] Robert Christgau, in his Consumer Guide column for MSN Music , gave the album a one-star honorable mention rating, indicating "a worthy effort consumers attuned to its overriding aesthetic or individual vision may well like". [18] [19]

<i>Wenu Wenu</i> 2013 studio album by Omar Souleyman

Wenu Wenu is the debut studio album by Syrian singer Omar Souleyman, released on 21 October 2013 on the American independent record label Ribbon Music. Although at the time of the album's release he already had a 20-year career and an extensive catalog of self-published live recordings, it is technically his first studio offering. Souleyman specializes in the dabke genre, which is typical at Levantine wedding parties, and his unique take on the genre—known for its electronic, minimalist sound—began to catch the attention of Western avant-garde and club music audiences after being included in bootleg compilations on the Sublime Frequencies label beginning in 2006. Following this, the singer started touring internationally, and his studio debut was preceded by collaborations with established Western acts such as Björk, Caribou and Damon Albarn.
