FilterMakes for exquisite travel music. [#19, p.96]
-
SpinBy staying on his uniquely off-kilter game, he's become an unlikely career artist. [Mar 2006, p.95]
-
This mini album sometimes feels as if it’s thrown together like quickly-packed luggage.
-
Less inquisitive and much more personal [than 'Silence'], Security Screenings' giddy mosaic of psychedelic disorientation has the morning-after effect of tweezing dream from memory.
-
UrbWith Screenings, Herren continues making complex compositions sound wonderfully smooth. [Mar 2006, p.116]
-
Entertainment WeeklyAt its best, the music's so hypnotic you won't miss [the vocals]. [24 Feb 2006, p.65]
-
If Surrounded by Silence was Prefuse 73 beside himself, or even ten steps behind himself, Security Screenings is a commendable return to the path blazed by One Word Extinguisher and its subsequent outtakes.
-
Herren has actually cooked up a brilliantly soothing and entertaining morsel for his fans.
-
Q MagazineIntricate yet funky, it mostly comes together to mesmeric effect. [Mar 2006, p.111]
-
Rolling StoneIt's a sustained and exhilarating trip back to Herren's futuristic roots. [23 Mar 2006, p.66]
-
The Prefuse of past years is replaced by plenty of airy distortion (reminiscent of his work with the Books and his side project, Savath + Savalas), and nods to the hip-hop beatwork of his early Warp records.
-
Security Screenings is a marked improvement over last year's directionless Surrounded by Silence.
