  1. Its sweeping cinematic scope and all-instrumental tracks recall the lushness of Orbital in their prime. [Oct 2002, p.86]
  2. 70
    An impressive artistic debut. [Oct 2002, p.96]
  3. 70
    The album will wear thin on short-attention-spanned listeners who need their dance albums dosed with a bit more variety. [Aug 2002, p.79]
  4. As a cohesive armchair trance soundtrack, Airdrawndagger is a clear success. [Sep 2002, p.106]

    These people don't know what they're talking about, absolutely one of the best "electronic" albums out there.

    I'm glad I'm not a critic so I don't look like an idiot when I try to review music I can't understand.

    This album is one of Sasha's masterworks in my opinion, allthough there are some portions that I tend to skip through, this album is excellent fluffy bliss in the clouds. Expand

    The most important electronic album since FSOL's "Dead Cities". Reimagines and redefines what trance is and should be, with nary a snare build or cascading arpeggio to be found. Most highly recommended. Expand
