  • Summary: The fifth album for Prefuse 73 was recorded on analog tape first.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 8 out of 14
  2. Negative: 0 out of 14
  1. His legacy already assured in his field (or fields, perhaps) with no apparent signs of slowing down, this is further evidence of the enduring, glitchy charm of Prefuse 73, and another compelling reason to seek him out.

    With Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian, not only has the frustratingly prolific Guillermo Scott Herren delivered a blinding banger of a record, he’s upped the game that appeared indomitable on 2003’s "One Word Extinguisher."
  3. It's a matter of personal taste, but Herren has largely shaken off these doubts with a rich and intriguing piece of work, the strengths of Everything She Touched... largely outweighing any reservations towards this sonically evocative album.
  4. The highlights of Ampexian suggest that if he did want to use the moniker for easier listening, the results would genuinely beguile, rather than demand your full attention and hope for the best.
  5. Uncut
    60
    The result is a warm, reto-feeling rendering of his brand of mechanical funk and psychedelic hip hop. We've been here before, but it's still a lovely listen. [May 2009, p.95]
  6. Under The Radar
    60
    Where Preparartions was sometimes too slick to behold, Ampexian takes the more arduous path. [Spring 2009, p.79]
  7. While definitely not an ideological Plan 9 soundtrack, it’s not an unearthly eyeful either.
