Jan 30, 2013The record is patient and delicate, but Chung remains a constant if not aggressive presence within every track, imbuing each with immaculate detail.
-
Mar 7, 2013Home is an overall softer, lighter affair and one that deserves attention.
-
Feb 1, 2013Home is a significant statement from a hugely impressive producer at the peak of his powers.
-
Jan 25, 2013Home is an ace of a second album, one which maintains the most important elements of Chung's painstakingly crafted sound while progressing nicely into a friendlier arena.
-
Feb 12, 2013Home might be a bust as an instrumental hip-hop album, but it is very successful as a piece of well-crafted electronic music.
-
Feb 11, 2013What happened to Jason Chung’s mind and body in the last three years to prompt such a hesitant album is unclear, but despite its flaws, Home feels like the perfect encapsulation of weakness turning into strength.
-
Feb 4, 2013The record is nothing new, but he somehow manages to make it all his own.
-
Jan 28, 2013Home's biggest problem is that it can easily drift by almost unnoticed.
-
Jan 25, 2013It's frequently beautiful, but perhaps too ephemeral an experience to establish a hold on anyone with more than music on their mind.
-
Jan 25, 2013The glinting "Glue" and well-titled "Snap" excepted, they [the nine remaining tracks, all instrumentals] lack the muscle of Chung's earlier releases, but they're more evocative--detailed enough to withstand numerous plays whenever comforting, if downcast and unobtrusive, abstract hip-hop is sought.
-
Jan 25, 2013The template hasn't changed much, and to some extent this is no bad thing.
-
Feb 11, 2013It’s bizarre, and at times beautiful, but overall it leaves a longing for some direction, some movement in this exploration of the abyss.
-
Jun 6, 2013These songs work together as a complete experience; with the exception of the single-bait “Eclipse”, there’s nothing here that stands out over the rest.
-
Q MagazineFeb 8, 2013Sometimes, it sounds so soporific that there's a lingering sense Chung can't quite be bothered to up the tempo. [Mar 2013, p.108]
-
Jan 25, 2013Home feels like an afterthought, the sound of Chung's craft diluted to the point where it's barely there.
