    This third album sees her come into her own as a songwriter with a seductive collection of slow-burning synth-funk. [Aug 2016, p.80]

    Liquid Cool has a raw honesty to it that comes from stripping back the instrumentals.

    Liquid Cool may be called understated for being Nite Jewel’s first album in four years, but it is refreshingly so.

    Soft, smooth and a breath of fresh air, if Liquid Cool is on the menu, I’ll have a glass too.

    She misses the mark slightly, and though her take on sweeping and haunting art-pop isn't always the most distinct--especially when compared to some of her like minded peers--it is in the end a truer and more consistent statement of her abilities, and one that also offers a lot more promise.

    Its library-lite funk may be full of syrupy drift, but the progressions are crafty enough to keep the listener from glazing over.

    While Gonzalez still hasn't hit the perfect balance between her experimental leanings and undeniable pop skills, Liquid Cool turns the strengths of her debut and One Second of Love into her most consistent album yet.

    Liquid Cool is just another likable if unexceptional lo-fi electro-pop record.
