  1. Village Voice (Consumer Guide)
    91
    More trip- than hip-hop in that its irresistibility is atmospheric -- a sound that pits industrial textures against quiet piano samples/parts.
  2. Austin Chronicle
    89
    Ultimately, it all plays out like a 60-minute calling card that illustrates hip-hop's most liberal producers aren't afraid to keep on keepin' on.
  3. Pitchfork
    50
    It's all good enough, but how many times, really, do you need to hear the term "rock the mic" in an hour? Not this many.

    Not a fan of hip-hop, but this CD (and indeed most anything with Dan The Automator involved) is great, but no Deltron 3030. Once again, note that Pitchfork drags the score down again...… Expand
