Q MagazineJul 2, 2014Ultimately, while(1<2) is overlong and never quite the cohesive masterpiece it wants to be, but there's tantalising evidence of a smart brain ticking away beneath those big Disney ears. [Aug 2014, p.114]
-
Jun 23, 2014While(1<2) offers a more thorough understanding of the dance music culture than the main stage at Ultra has done over the last six years.
-
Jun 23, 2014Repeating very simple, barely there melodies over spare arrangements and ghostly keys is fine when you're soundtracking a Michael Mann film, but it isn't enough to fill the long gaps between your club-crashers.
-
Jun 23, 2014Quality-wise, the second half of the album has a higher batting average.
-
Jun 17, 2014Sprawling, ambitious and mostly well-executed, While (1<2) may confuse his fan base’s Ultra-attending electro house contingent, but deadmau5’s double album undoubtedly marks his most mature and forward-thinking release to date.
-
Jun 17, 2014While(1<2) is a very good, very restrained, and very inspired Deadmau5 effort.
-
Jun 17, 2014Deadmau5’s double-album leviathan While(1<2), however, makes room for many new moods while playing with his genre’s formulas.
-
Jun 17, 2014For his seventh album, Deadmau5 has turned from an electro-house polymath into the world's most unnecessary Nine Inch Nails tribute act.... However, erase the Reznor fan fiction from this 141-minute behemoth, and there's a solid 64-minute house record hidden in there.
