Entertainment Reviews:
Entertainment Weekly - 4/9/99, p.77
"This Chicago-based underground scenester performs trippy mutations on everything from cool jazz to prog-rock to Sergio Mendes bossa nova..." - Rating: BThe Wire - 1/00, p.67
Included in Wire Magazine's "50 Records Of The Year ['99]"The Wire - 4/99, p.68
"...gorgeous, a silky confection with its heart in late 60s orchestrated American pop, with just enough edgy noises to hold onto its avant status..."CMJ - 3/15/99, p.22
"...Chicago's favorite avant-son has pulled a fast one on fans of his deconstructionist aesthetic, as the album plays it atypically melodic and pop centric. In fact, EUREKA is practically easy listening, marked by light, jazzy arrangements and swank instrumental detail..."Mojo (Publisher) - 1/00, p.30
Ranked #32 in Mojo Magazine's "Best of 1999"Mojo (Publisher) - 4/99, p.108
