DJ Rolando (Los Hermanos/UR) - “Digital System is slammin’.”
Laurent Garnier (F-Com) - “Beautiful stuff on both sides - great release.”
Plump DJs (Fabric) - “Very competent electro - late night rather than mid-set.”
Tiga (Turbo) - “Amazing record…manages to stand out even in the over-saturated electro genre. Fusion Theme is a killer old-school techno jam. Digital System - electro hit. Love it.
The Hacker (Gigolo/Goodlife) - “I love it, especially Digital System - I play it and put it in my monthly playlist in Trax, the biggest French techno magazine!”br>
Glo3 (Trust, Austria) - “My favourite is definitely Digital System -
gritty, funky, old school Detroit-tech. Excellent. B2 is nice as well.”
