Nov 7, 2017As the mix migrates to the dancefloor, Lone drops some smooth 90s techno with John Beltran’s ‘Placid Angles’ and the cyber-electro of Drexciya’s ‘Bubble Metropolis’, before signing off with Radiohead’s obscure and atmospheric mood sketch ‘Worrywort’.

Nov 7, 2017DJ-Kicks lays out each of his influences piece by piece, almost like listening to a deconstructed Lone album. For fans of Cutler's singular music, it's an essential entry in his discography.

Nov 7, 2017Lone’s DJ-Kicks probably won’t get your party started--not in a great hurry, anyway. But it fits snugly into an illustrious line of DJ-Kicks albums that favor the mind over the feet and the bean bag over the dancefloor.

Jan 9, 2018More than many other DJ Kicks releases, this one comes across like a cassette mixtape, with Cutler trying to get in a bit of everything he likes in under 80 minutes while giving it some sense of design and flow. It's not going to be the soundtrack to a club night, or probably not even the chillout room. But as far as lazing around Cutler's living room, or yours, it's pretty great.
