    [The songs on Majenta] confirm Edgar's inimitable creative talents.

    Quite possibly represents Edgar's most full-blooded work yet.

    Although Jimmy Edgar isn't the first (or best) to do neo-electro (Chromeo and DāM-FunK come to mind), Majenta shows that he might just be the most believable.

    For much of Majenta he seems content to lie back and think of Prince. [Jul 2012, p.71]
