Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 11/13/03, p.99
3 stars out of 5 - "...He can kick out the grooves when he wants to, but he's more like a whimsical version of DJ Shadow, playing with oddball sounds like a kid in a sandbox full of toys....impressive soundscapes that will also make you crack a smile."
Spin - 01/04, p.100

Entertainment Weekly - 10/10/03, p.125
