Alternative PressGeller's keyboard-fueled squiggles and quirky effects are effervescent but never cloying, thanks to the seriousness in Dykes' aloof, melancholy voice. [Oct 2001, p.84]
-
Dan Geller and Amy Dykes have a buried knack for the driving groove; songs like "Move On" and "Holland Tunnel" want to rock your body and jack you up hardcore, but are limited by their sound and recording quality.
-
A surprisingly refreshing and playful album's worth of electronic dance-pop.
-
A smashing success that avoids sounding too retro, as Geller's beats sound readymade for roller discos and bedrooms alike.
