    The music of BT is something that you either get or don't get. This album is a little different from 'Movement in Stil Life'; but all the hallmarks are there - incredible attention to detail, crazy / inspired sample exploration, and the unconventional mixing of disparate elements to create something unique and beautiful.

    An incredible album filled with variety. Extraordinary production values, and a real emphasis on the music, rather than the packaging.

    In a way, it seems like BT was trying to reconstruct his last album but with a little more mainstream appeal. The results are mixed but over all, it's a decent album.

    He's too reserved as a solo performer to keep things interesting. [5 Sep 2003, p.77]
  2. Just a shade less stunning than his last full-length, Emotional Technology at least establishes him as one of the better album constructors in the singles-driven world of dance.

    At seventy-eight minutes, Emotional Technology gets a bit long in the tooth, but you get the feeling that the myriad streams of sound that pass between (and through) his ears have finally nestled together in a grandiose manner he envisioned. [Sep 2003, p.99]
