    There are a few dated misfires here, but overall, All The Young Droids is a warm-hearted, playful and sporadically dazzling tribute to the futurist dreams of yesteryear. [Jul 2025, p48]

    Much of it goes beyond kitsch. With a favourable wind and a Rushent, Horn or Moroder at hand, some of these guys (it mostly is guys) could have made it. [Sep 2025, p.98]

    Given the remit of this collection, you’d be forgiven for anticipating a jumble of two-bit Human League and Gary Numan rip-offs. Thankfully this unexpectedly odd compilation delivers a whole lot more. [Jul 2025, p.68]
