Reception

edit

Jon Pareles of The New York Times described the concert at Webster Hall as "an elaborately synthetic production that flaunted technology but conjured emotion".[2] Resident Advisor rated the concert at Scala, London 4 out of 5[3] and in a subsequent feature called it "one of the most memorably bizarre performances the electronic music scene has ever witnessed".[4]
