  • Plucked from one of '06's top albums and dropped onto an' 07 soundtrack to become a single in '08 and make the case for the lesser-know DJ Wes as heir to Rick Rock's hyphy throne, it was all we had in advance of the new 40 Water album which was due out in November and just … vanished. —  jane dark's sugarhigh!
  • It's high BPM and synth-heavy like hyphy production, but hipper in that it sounds like hipster electronica. —  Nation of Thizzlam
  • Showcasing a wild array of styles and cadences, Tech barrels madly through tracks such as the hyphy-snap hybrid "Gangsta Shap" and the giant stepper "You Don't Want It." —  The Pitch | Complete Issue
  • Railcars and Aria Jalali's unique voice in the Bay Area's experimental electronic / art pop music scene - especially considering the intense focus on hyphy music ... or at least mine, Mac Dre / Traxamillion / DTF represent! —  IHEARTCOMIX!
