Q MagazineFeb 25, 2015Snapshots of old stand-bys come through, but it's in tunes such as the disco tribute Rainbow and the clonky piano of The Drifter that his gift for marrying the modern to history, both recent and ancient, really shines. [Apr 2015, p.108]

Feb 23, 2015While it's easy to go overboard making an album like this and lose a track by burying it in too many samples and obscure references, Projections keeps its focus, and balance, by never using more than necessary.

Feb 23, 2015Reminiscent of the early-00s output of Saint Germain, Caribou’s side project Daphni, or even early Basement Jaxx, Perceptions might not feel entirely original, but it is thoroughly winning.

Feb 23, 2015Tthe 11 tracks on Projections have an earthy, authentically humble feel that precludes any thoughts of pretension or exploitation. Romare the producer seems to have a genuine affinity for Romare the painter, which lends a palpable sense of sincerity to Projections.

Feb 24, 2015Projections, Fairhurst's first album, designed more for home listening than for dancefloors, is relatively listless, sometimes torpid, and often sounds more like a project than a form of expression.
-
Mar 16, 2015Without its academic trappings, Projections starts to grate, with its middle-of-the-road niceness and mood of tepid celebration. With them, it's borderline offensive.
