Oct 11, 2021An intricate SICK footwork album from the genres best. Filled with new industrial sounds,captivating cover art and intriguing song titles this record succeeds in pulling me in&keeping me entertained.

Apr 9, 2018On the first listen, it was just a bunch of nonsensical noises, but as I listened again, it all started to make sense.

Jul 14, 2017The album is complex when it comes to the sounds, but if you are in for a complex album when it comes to composition this is going to be a huge letdown, Jlin goes from A to Z with the sounds, creating an atmosphere, sure, but its own atmosphere might be its biggest weakness. This record is too dense to attract listeners and to engage them.

Jul 3, 2017It's not the kind of music I'd listen to in my car. But those who produce know that making an album with this theme using these types of sounds is very difficult. It's a real "Trip sound", your mom ain't understand!

Jun 11, 2017While most of these songs have a very intricate and engrossing sonic pallet, it falls flat when she constantly bombards us with one annoying sound per song that keeps droning in the background, taking away from the other 90% of audio brilliance.

Jun 8, 2017While techniques within the layering stayed quite stagnant and the constant additions of ideas lost some sense of resolve, the diversity within the melodic loops and cool percussive beats made this a neat, ambitious work. My Score: 121/180 (Good) = 6.7/10

The WireAug 8, 2017There’s a gracefulness to Patton’s rhythms that sets her apart from other footwork producers--something deeply contemplative. [Jun 2017, p.66]

Jun 28, 2017Make no mistake--this is an album that’s challenging and demands attention, but if you can stay focused, you’ll be richly rewarded.

Jun 5, 2017Sometimes the constant shifts can leave you reeling and wondering what Jlin is trying to get at, but it’s never long before they pick you up again and pull you back into it. This is the sound of a huge talent blossoming.
