Trafik - Progressive House and Electronica gets 5 Stars from Sound on Sound!
"If you're suspicious that people with this kind of profile might just be cashing in with a bunch of second-rate material scraped from some dusty corner of an old hard drive, then let me lay your fears to rest - there's no doubt that Trafik are firing the big guns here."
"What's really knock-out, though, is the programming dynamics, which supply ample sucky side-chain madness without giving away any transient wallop - this is partly expert use of reversed snippets and twisted ambiences, and is a real tour de force."
"The bass loops are also enormously satisfying, reminding me pleasantly at times of the Chemical Brothers' 'Private Psychedelic Reel'."
"There are some diamonds to be mined here, and churning through the raw one-shots also underlines how much talent Trafik have brought to bear in transforming them into living, breathing, pulsating beats."
"Christmas has arrived early for anyone wanting an injection of intelligence, danceability, and magic for their chosen flavour of IDM." Rating: 5 stars
