"Could this be the best Swedish hip-hop album of the year?
Can it even count as a hip-hop record?"
JustDet.se (4/5)
”The shivers down the spine won’t stop when the opening instrumental track “Introduction” starts. For a while it feels like I´ve lost my breath. Then I realize that it’s simply the chock of having just taken part of the best Swedish instrumental track in years. At its centre, a laid-back, emotional melodic phrase from an electric piano, closely surrounded by the backing of a bass, a well-oiled drum-machinery, and floating, dreamlike singing from guest-starring Merit Hemmingson. This tight, captivating, mysterious and organic soundscape then continues to surround the rest of the four tracks of the 13-minute-long Flyphonic EP ”Mosaic Tiles EP”, that serves as a sort of appetizer of the production team´s current sound in the wait for the forthcoming album “Mosaic” (that will be released this fall). Concise and delightful from Sundsvall-bound Arka & Erik L, who refuse to disappoint us. And for that we thank them!”

Imorse/inatt satt jag och funderade i tänkarposition med knytnäven som stöd för hakan och även resten av mitt tunga intelligenta huvud. Jag tänkte: Nu har jag gjort musik i så många år att jag kanske borde ta och lägga på ett kol, så nu gör jag det genom att släppa en ny grym låt och till skillnad från det ni hört tidigare av mig så håller detta helt klart högre standard!

THE DIARY Volume 1.5 (20 Years of the Remix) now available for free download at WWW.MUSICOFSUBSTANCE.COM!
“This CD just shows how much Chris Read knows about historic Hip Hop production techniques - Its just a shame he wasn't creating this stuff during the eras he's covering as we would probably rate the man as being up there with Paul C, Pete Rock, Premier and all! - I can't think of another Hip Hop CD I've played so much in years” (ANDY SMITH - PORTISHEAD)
"Chris continues the rap anthology concept of his super-dope 'The Diary' megamix in the shape of a remix project, re-lacing acapellas from 89-2009 with historically accurate beats. 'The Diary 1.5' serves as a great platform for Chris to showcase his ample beat-making skills whilst referencing those who've inspired him." (DJ WOODY - FORMER WORLD ITF CHAMPION)
“Wicked! The perfect companion to The Diary Mixtape. Shows an impressive knowledge of sounds from all eras.” (MR THING - FORMER WORLD DMC CHAMPION)
"Crazy! This is Rap History in the making. Chris proves his production skills on this one to the fullest. A wonderful and refreshing journey through all eras of hip hop. Double thumbs up!" (MARC HYPE - FORMER ITF CHAMPION)
