Reception
The album received generally positive reviews, with some claiming the release to be a solid follow-up to not only Pnau, but also to Empire of the Sun's Walking on a Dream and Groove Armada's Black Light, both of which featured heavy involvement from Littlemore.[4][5] Many critics, however, expressed mixed feelings concerning the new sound and direction, mostly in comparison to the duo's "quirky" sound and themes of their 2007 release.[5][6][7][8][9]
