The song’s pulsating beat, ominous sci-fi tones and driving stabs of synth give the track an upbeat and energetic vibe that will have you reaching for the lasers in some abandoned warehouse somewhere." NARC Magazine. "Airy house inspired by mid 90s techno, acid and trance...as the beat builds, choppy synths ride in on clouds of ambient textures and sounds before a subtle Daft Punk bassline suddenly comes up in the mix as the track reaches a suitably trancey, toe-tapping zenith." (Review of No Returns by NARC Magazine) Continually layering looped phrases – from laser-gun stomping beats and intricate drumlines to distorted vocal lines
