    An amazing journey from the outer limits to street level with a wormhole in the middle, Back on the Planet is stellar.

    This is a visionary coming into his own. [Sep 2013, p.56]

    At times, the blend is less than palatable and, frankly, too busy, as on the title track. However, this franticness is occasionally contrasted by a song that manages to draw you in.

    The LP is merely a collection of somewhat compelling, hip-hop-leaning beats that largely go nowhere; it's more like a dressed-up beat tape, and not a particularly exciting one at that.

    In its totality, Back on the Planet works as a decent upgrade from Spacebase, despite its weird results.

    This is just a lot of well produced but unenjoyable noise.
