    The result is digital psychedelia with eyedrop clarity. [Apr 2013, p.71]

    It’s a place where house music melts into a joyous, shimmering gloop.

    House Of Woo is one of the sparkier dance albums of the year so far, and a gem amidst all the buncombe.

    For Pickering, electronic music is as powerful as any supernatural promise, and on House of Woo, he demonstrates his dedication to the beat with a most persuasive degree of conviction.

    Woo is more or less an extension of--and improvement on--the ideas explored on Field-Pickering's debut, 2010's Cool Water.

    House of Woo suggests an artist who’s still coming into his own without being afraid to play chameleon at the DJ booth.

    Most of this material has a tense, enervating effect, despite the haziness of the sonic palette Field-Pickering favours. [Feb 2013, p.60]
