    The new model Apples don’t always achieve liftoff, but Simeon still possesses the coordinates for dazzling new places.

    While there may be a few wrong turns on Clinging To A Dream, Simeon is still creating vibrant, challenging and exciting music.

    It is the product of a septuagenarian survivor ceaselessly exploring a self-made world without conceding to compromise; which is sometimes frustrating yet frequently still compelling in execution.
  6. Uncut
    Sep 6, 2016
    60
    There are some great passages of live-wire electronica, but more often it's strangely lacking any aura or elemental spark. [Oct 2016, p.39]

    A burbling concept piece with moments of poppy and demonic. [Oct 2016, p.100]
