"The St. Petersburg electronica duo EU last year wooed music lovers, media and everybody in-between with their homely, heart-warming melodic electronics. Over the 6 tracks of this EP, we see them moving away from the use of their trademark complex dsp and glitch-trickery, as their sound throughout this EP metamorphoses into a new world of crunchy hipped and hopped beats, skewed melodic refrains, dense basslines and electronic daydreams."

"Ninth CD by this prolific Russian IDM artist (previously: EU_Soft, EU_Phonic, Clip Cool, EU_Hard II, (V,W), Rhythm Manipulation, 19, Christmas Baubles). Now I am as permissive of IDM as the next guy, but after eight albums of the stuff, it gets a bit regurgitative. No, I'm kidding you. This is really EU's second real album after his Art-Tek 'debut'. Although he does have seven other albums out, they are mp3.com DAM CDs which really don't count as real albums as they're manufactured by mp3.com on special 'temporary use' CDs. This CD is a real CD and will last forever and ever. I like how, in the music, those mystery sounds come in then drums come in then the melody is in then the drums are out then at the end it's everything all together. I like that. And the voices, how they remind me of being a child, their childishness. It brings on a nice feeling here... and here. When I'm sleeping and in the magic fairy kingdom that inhabits my dreams there's a soundtrack like this, all sweetness and light with a little bit of sadness. No one's every tired cause no one ever works very hard. And in the purple mushroom cloud passage where the sprites (passage edited)... Lite." -- Hrvatski.
