    Pop elements ensure that Musostics works pleasantly enough as background music, but it is also complicated enough to reward more concentrated listening.

    Behind the cerebral diversions, there's a sense of play and a certain wistfulness, as if the Beach Boys had gotten Ph.D.'s in game theory.

    Musostics is a more satisfying album that proves Junior Electronics can now do even more with less.

    Musostics isn't an unpleasant listen by any means, but it doesn't have the same kind of warmth and charm as his pals' music.
