    With this diverse cast of characters, the web of collaboration and sonic diversity could spin off forever. But under Avanessian's watchful presence, the sonic palette remains in a key that will perpetually draw head-nodders in.

    As a hip-hop record, Headset's Space Settings fails to hit the mark of its influences, but it is successful in its own right.

    Beans and Subtitle are especially fitting on vocals, since both are as loopy as the beats. [Sep 2004, p.115]

    Spacesettings is liquidated, hookless, and entirely flaccid.
