    Gold Panda seems most interested in the former on his DJ-Kicks mix, keeping the dynamics understated, but the results are consistently interesting, melodic, and effective.

    This is one of those very rare electronica albums that actually rewards deep and repeated listening.

    And it does seem that way here[on this album], that Gold Panda has made some kind of discovery that will be looked back on in a few years time as a defining statement to the turning tides of dance music extravagance.

    Fans of cuddly, home-listening indie electronica ... will want to hear this lovely DJ set of headphone beat candy.

    All totally fine, of course, but next time a little passion and personality won't go amiss. [Jan 2012, p.103]
