"Last Test is emotionally powerful and a musically dazzling work."

"You sense this is the work of an individual who's thrilling at every layer of sound he puts onto a track; in Last Test I'm suddenly aware that some other Dementio13 tracks were, though I didn't realise it at the time, actually quite restrained in comparison. This is Dementio13 getting attuned to the nature of the electronic beast that resides within its sound, releasing it and thrilling at the carnage it wreaks."

"The opening groove of “A Beat Called Don” will have any Krautrock devotee who has even a passing acquaintance with Neu!, salivating with joy, whilst “Pemberton Colliery”, through a series of tones and electronic textures, takes the listener on a journey through the history of electronic music over the past fifty years."

"The firing-on-all-cylinders, big beat-flavours showcased during ‘A Beat Called Don’, and the slower in tempo, industrial sounding ‘Really Far Away’ together recall Alan Wilder’s Recoil project, Capricorn, and DOSE. The latter tune cleverly develops into an upbeat number during its second half; as though a very precarious and altogether sinister environment becomes instead a beacon of hope and togetherness. Think Recoil segueing into Surrender era Chemical Brothers and you will, sort of, get the picture"

"‘Last Test’ is, in a word, eclectic. Do not confuse this with random though. ’Last Test’ jumps from extreme to extreme, but it is a well designed journey that follows the listener to carefully selected waypoints. "

"...his forthcoming Crash St album reveals him to be still moving forward in invigorating and never predictable directions, his exploratory electronica more varied in texture and mood than pretty much any of his contemporaries."

"...electronic, programmed machine music, bursting at the seams with humanity and soul, imprinted with the traces of its creator.......Dementio13 has mastered the art of creating human music, organic music that breathes, while capitalising on the power and impact of the machine." ('Crash St' preview)

"...while I’m not saying that Dementio13 has single-handedly inverted the world of the musics he implicates in his work, he has certainly shown a remarkable insight and clarity of vision to bring this seamless fusion about....('The Hobbyist') is also a very evocative musical statement, with a more developed sense of soul than dozens of histrionic guitar bands."
