PRESS:

"Well, it's high time we've had an electronic music record with a sense of humour and a wide view on things. Miguel Soares, not unlike Kubik or Mola Dudle is part of a category of musicians to whom machines are cornucopia from which sweets, dreams, creatures, new lands, chocolate, ghosts and anything else our imagination may beckon spring forth. The synth, the sampler and the computer are the filters of an alternative reality encompassed by a personal vision and the effort to bring a range of many things together, owing also to the Producers excellent production work. (...) a quality in ideas, innovative and exciting solutions that's above average. Not to mention the fact that titles such as "Beer Canal", "Sparky", "Warp Reactor" or "Buzz Aldrin" are at Negativland-level. (8/10)" - Fernando Magalhães in Y, Público
