    The future and past collide throughout. [Aug 2013, p.91]

    A landmark record in a nonpareil catalog, this is Paradinas’ finest work in over a decade and arguably superior to those recent offerings of his vastly more publicized peers.

    Largely Chewed Corners has the sound of an artist at complete ease with a vocabulary built over 20 years and its parameters. [Jul 2013, p.67]

    While it might not be as iconic as the records it admires, Chewed Corners is an invigorating return for the Planet Mu head honcho.

    Even if it's not as striking or emotionally resonant as Duntisbourne Abbots Soulmate Devastation Technique, it's certainly an engaging, welcome return.

    If his production has lost a little funkiness it's gained buckets of emotive power. [Aug 2013, p.100]

    You can't fault µ-ZIQ for branching out of the staid EDM clichés that oversaturate the electronic music landscape, but unfortunately, Chewing Corners is a little too disorganised.
