May 29, 2020The talent is there, the hits are overflowing, but the identity is near absent. "Cloud Nine" is a strong commercial debut but a warning sign for the future of young Kygo's career.

Jan 15, 2019This is a good album. A great start for Kygo. This type of EDM is what I like.

Jul 6, 2016Really interesting style. At first I dismissed this album for all the songs sounding the same, but once you listen to it more, it's a really awesome album. Awesome tropical house/pop sound. Awesome vocalists especially the collab with Foxes. Overall a great album for anyone's 2016 collection.

May 31, 2016This album is okay. It sometimes makes me feels bored and sleepy. This is a very different kind of EDM but not much of the good kind, it is sometimes lame and doesn't include much beats for a EDM album, not that much quality for a well known EDM star. This album is more of a relaxtion album, only when you have stress.

May 24, 2016Probably one of my favorite releases of the year so far. From start to finish, this record takes you to a relaxing journey, giving it consistency for that matter and a sound very defined, while getting great collaborations from artists such as Tom Odell, Labrinth and folk duo Angus & Julia Stone. Highlights being Fiction, Firestone, Nothing Left, Fragile and For What It's Worth.

May 20, 2016A nice start for an emerging artist. The album promises very much in the beginning with its wonderful "Intro" but fails tp do so. Kygo has a long way to go yet the album provides you a sense of relaxation.

Q MagazineJun 6, 2016The narrow emotional and musical range suggests Kygo doesn't have unexplored depths, but he doesn't need them. [#361, p.111]

May 19, 2016Cloud Nine could certainly do with a few more musical ideas, but this shouldn’t trouble Kygo unduly--after all, the same problem never held back David Guetta and Calvin Harris.

May 12, 2016He’s still figuring out the transition out of his remix artist phase, but enough works on his debut to show that there’s hope for the future.
