Press for Terry Riley Disco
...The result of this rather bookish (geddit?) clash of identities is a surprisingly modernist lashing of electro pop, with a startling deadpan, tongue-in-cheek vocal supplied by Chadburn set to a background of mesmerically fluctuating analogue electronics and digital beats ...Single of the year so far, by a distance! —Barcode Zine, 2006
...It does conjure images of the kind of record The Pet Shops Boys might make with Pulp - all skewed Roxy Music funk and clever lyrics. The Max Tundra remix takes the electro blueprint of the original and cut and shunts it into a twitchy bass heavy monster. The vocal snippets, dry drums and '70s synth blurbs make it a dance floor killer. Disco for the head and feet. —MusicOMH, 2006
