  • Summary: Electronica artist and producer Jimmy Tamborello (who is 1/2 of the Postal Service, 1/3 of Figurine, and 1/1 of Dntel) returns with a solo album of minimal techno under yet another name, with Erlend Oye, John Tejada and Jenny Lewis minimally guesting.

    With nary a glitch or bloop in sight, the blend turns out as playful Sascha funk(e) a la Drei Auf Drei dipped in Postalesque lyrical pop bliss. [#21, p.100]

    This is beautiful, baffling late-night music for shy boys and robots. [Aug 2006, p.108]
  3. Unsurprisingly, he's at his best when he's melding heartfelt lyrics with otherworldly noise. [Sep 2006, p.230]
  4. It's not quite focused enough to place among the best of his other work.
