Dec 22, 2015Odds are strong that no like-titled album is as cold as this one.

Jun 26, 2015The operatic IDM of the previously released 'Mountain Divide' is hard not to view as the pick, but even so, Tundra still has all the sonic intensity of an R&S classic.

Jun 26, 2015Tundra is a techno album as contemplation, not in in the sense that it is soft or gentle (it most certainly isn't), but in the way that it allows you to plug in with your surroundings, letting the earth and sky open up around you.

Jun 26, 2015As with any piece of music that ebbs and flows this forcefully, you should listen to it loudly, and try to get swept away by it.

The WireAug 5, 2015If anything, it sounds over-finessed at times, the slick mixing resisting the rawness and density that is the album's most vital quality--the duo is at their best when the few fragments of eclectic prettiness get swamped in cacophony. [May 2015, p.58]
