What may seem messy at first listen starts to fall into sharper definition and 'Hyper Flux' makes a very strong case for being his most seductive and mature record yet.

The deep ambience of the albums opener �Esotic Energy� melts into the shivering 4/4 pulses of �Jitter�. �Nasty MF� pits a sludgy house beat against rough vocal samples whose aggression is disarmed by bell-like melodies, matching one earthiness for another. �Rule The Sun� melts pattering drums and distorted chords with distant piano, while �Multicone� takes things down with relaxing undulating chords and clicks and cuts. The centrepiece of the album is the space cruise of �Lly Spirals� which sounds like early 80s boogie blasted into the stratosphere. Things start to get weird with �Solar Xub�s drifting jazz, punctuated with scratchy beats and noise. �Cops Twerk� is a rattling piece of uptempo techno with flickering rave chords and a vocal that sounds like police radio whereas �Peach� is a bristling piece of ambient house, all reverbed hits and reversed stabs over a scuttling broken drum kit. �Dedicated� featuring the vocals of Mar G. balances loose chords and a reversed break against her plaintive, striking vocal. Hyper Flux finishes the way it started, with the distorted chords of �Zykmed�, echoing dust and hiss played out over a gentle nostalgic melody.
