    It's certainly a brave move to furnish it with such exotic pieces, but one that pays off beautifully. [Apr 2012, p.81]
  2. [An] exceptionally artful debut.

    For the rest of us who don't mind getting our groove on to music served with a side of narcissism, it's not difficult to admit Bainbridge might be onto something.

    For all its capricious cherry-picking of the historic benchmarks of sensuality and synthetics, there's still a sense of genuine invention that permeates the whole album.

    It's classy and airy, although so stylishly produced (with French house guru Cassius) that it can feel like a soundtrack to an imaginary Ideal Home exhibition of laboratory-like perfection.

    There are much worse records out there but at the end of the day, and somewhat ironically, it's just much too kind.

    Its sound design may be impeccable, but World… sorely lacks grit.
