Sheer Trippy Bliss

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Well, notwithstanding the criticisms of Mr. "Keith" from Cambridge, (gosh, who could that be?) this album is fantastic. I play it during rush hour traffic in my car, and zone out into a different reality. I love the classical sounding horn arrangement in the opening track layered with breakbeats. The fourth track has me almost getting into a car wreck as I'm cruising along and zoning out much farther than I expected. Like most of my favorite albums, I was luke-warm on it at a first listen, but then after a few more times, I'm addicted. This album is musical [drugs].I used to live in Cambridge, and only discovered Hrvatski after moving out to LA. I could kick myself very hard when I think that I missed the chance to check out Hrvatski live at a local show. Fortunately, I managed to get a copy of the album. Keep it up "Keith", I want more!!"

Strangely Perfect Electronica

"This album is 50% superior, along with another 50% superior. I've never heard anything like this before. It's unfortunate that other electronic composers are so formulaic because I would like to hear more. Hrvatski is one of a kind and deserves all the praise he recieves. I won't event try to explain what he does to manipulate the electronica genre, but the result is otherwordly. Hrvatski said "I am god for making such a great recording." Amen brother."

An immediate classic

"this album might not make immediate sense on the first 2-3 listens, but it is by no means a rehash or a new serving of old tricks. hrvatski makes some seriously wacked, _listenable_ drum n bass which ranks amongst the most original electronic music heard today. it was in my top 10 for 1999 along with zammuto's _solutiore of stareau_ triple cdr & shirt trax's _good news from space_."
