 Unique and futuristically brilliant... April 16, 2007
C. Jones (Lauderhill, FL)
This is one fascinating CD. The sounds are housey but they are not at the same time. Fast paced and beautiful with charming vocals on some and hypnotic grooves on many of the others. I work out to it all the time and I really don't know how to describe it other than genius.
 Endeavor primed right for an early-AM candlelight comedown November 26, 2001
Richard Diaz (Centerville, OH United States)

Making minimal, moody instrumental house, you ride a fine line between skillfully stripped down compositions and lifeless beat loops. Swedish duo YMC (by way of Deep Dish label Yoshitoshi Recordings) carefully avoid that trap - boring us - by packing each elongated piece with minute flutters and flares that subtly enhance their ideas.Lively and lovely, "Bluesless" proves breathtaking, snips of sax and chimes floating around a forlorn, rippled vocal. "Nightlife", with low-key shine and ambient dips, soothes like an aural bubble bath. The remaining tracks don't always match these moments, yet the full seventy-five minute effect of minor chords, simmering beats, and percolating semi-peaks ("Morning Lake") form an artist endeavor primed so right for an early-AM candlelight comedown. Well done.
