    Driven as equally by abstraction as by hooks, Pulsars e Quasars does not bury pop underneath noise, it marries the two loosely, and the record holds together well because of that looseness.

    A set that touches on the laser-guided minimalism of his early work but mainly finds him knocking out shaggy bar-room psych and strung-out doo-wop. [Oct 2014, p.67]

    EP release Pulsars e Quasars offers something of an introductory grab bag of the various styles that Arp is capable of.

    It's pretty boring and one-note, but if Georgopoulos' indulgent, decadent tendencies produce the occasional dud, it seems a small price to pay for the intrigue of looking forward to what he’s going to do next.

    The Moog returns here, but 'Suns'--two minutes of busted TV static--is an inscrutable opener.
