Review

Released the same year as their debut, Sextet upped the energy of A Certain Ratio's dour minimalist dance, with cursory nods to even soul and funk from vocalist Martha Tilson. For the most part, though, the electronics and rhythms are still curiously apart from song structure, making for an oddly distanced record. [This version of the release contains bonus material.] ~ Keith Farley, All Music Guide
