MojoMay 18, 2011More symphonic in structure than Herren's previous work and richer in melody and theme, it eschews loops in favor of fuzzy interference and acoustic vibrations. [Jun 2011, p.97]
-
UncutMay 13, 2011An immersive blend of the symphonic and electronic, this absorbing album taps into a noble lineage stretching from AR Kane's lysergic avant-pop to sci-fi jazz alchemist Flying Lotus. [Jun 2011, p.94]
-
Apr 28, 2011The Only She Chapters is yet another confident addition to Scott-Herren's collection as Prefuse 73.
-
Apr 26, 2011You aren't likely to find a single track that you'd want to put on repeat for the drive home from work, but the experience of listening from track to track, beginning to end, is a moving experience worth lending your ears.
-
Apr 22, 2011Slowed down, the only thing revealed is how seamless his stitching his, how clever his adjunctions are and how much musicianship it takes to create a good sample-based record.
-
Apr 22, 2011While occasionally meandering or drifting into tempests of digital noise, Herren focuses on a path of rapturous melancholy.
-
Apr 26, 2011The instrumentation-whether played, programmed, or sampled; a little of each typically goes into Prefuse 73's recordings-is given room to stretch its limbs. Sonically, a lot of wind seems to sweep.
-
May 19, 2011The songs are somber and meditative, clearly crafted by a master, but the boundaries Prefuse 73 normally annihilates remain mostly in place here.
-
Apr 29, 2011It's dense and impressive production work, but not as listenable as Herren at his best.
