    His hard-hitting electro is basic, but brutally effective dancefloor fare. [Feb 2009, p.119]

    Like most remix comps, Decent Work is ultimately a grab-bag.
  5. PopMatters

    Decent Work for Decent Pay is choppy and uneven, as many compilation albums are inevitably going to be.
  6. Drowned In Sound

    Disappointingly, this is a shaky collection for such a groundbreaking producer, though unlikely to impact his designs on commercial ascendancy.
  7. The Guardian
    40
    It has plenty of bracingly dynamic moments--a batucada-enhanced reworking of Samim's Heater, the lurching power of Kano's Reload It, the old-skool exuberance of Spank Rock's Put That Pussy On Me--but moments are all they remain.
