MojoThis isn't Air, but something quirkier. [Jan 2007, p.106]
-
Sometimes moody, sometimes optimistic, this doesn’t feel sure of what it wants to be and instead feels a little like an Air outtakes album.
-
New Musical Express (NME)The whiff of soft-rock schmaltz is occasionally close to overpowering. [16 Sep 2006, p.36]
-
If the naivity and high-pitched voice don't grate, chances are the shifting soundscapes will still leave you charmed.
-
Even when Dunckel stays closer to type, here he usually relies on unremarkable downtempo beats to support unfortunate space-hippie mewlings.
-
What is blatantly obvious is that Mr Dunckel should politely be steered away from the microphone at all future recording sessions.
-
Q MagazineGenerally there's a lightness here he'd do well to retain. [Oct 2006, p.118]
-
SpinSo faceless that it'll make you hanker for Dirty Vegas deep cuts. [Oct 2006, p.96]
-
When Dunckel moves away from pop immediacy, the results are often puzzling.
-
It sounds like Air divided by two, but it's all too easy to hear what's missing.
-
Without his band's usual deep-pile arrangements, these twinkling melodies and synth-prog twiddles sound rather insubstantial.
-
UncutThe pappy, throwaway nature of the tunes undermines any serious intent. [Oct 2006, p.124]
-
UrbSuffers slightly from pasteurized cheese. [Oct 2006, p.120]
