MUSICOMH
It's at once musically challenging, undeniably engaging, and often quite mesmerising.

PITCHFORK
Vanderslice and Choi have made a memorable album that successfully adds a new twist to Vanderslice's catalog.

TINY MIX TAPES
The Orchestra’s lively arrangements are mostly quite fascinating, but JV’s exacting pop sensibility and his backing group’s exploratory approach don’t always balance each other out.

NO RIPCORD
The bare bones of his usually excellent songwriting are there, but it’s more constrained by the orchestration than set free.

DROWNED IN SOUND
It's indebted to an over-complication of ideas in a collaboration that struggles to flourish the way it should do on paper.
