    Not bad - the singles stand out but the rest is on the verge of being dull - Zero 7's Simple Things much more accomplished.

    Even when hitting on well-worn genre exercises, the duo tweaks its formula in small ways that lead to big returns.

    [The appeal] is in the warm, '70s synths that float melodies into the druggy stratosphere, giving the band's shifty downtempo rhythms and vaguely experimental production a retro-sexy touch. [Nov 2002, p.98]

    Royksopp show a debt to art rock, but they replace Pink Floyd's paranoia with a mood of late-night sorrow.
