Jlin dark energy album review


Critical reception

Dark Energy received universal acclaim from music critics. AllMusic called it "simply one of the most compelling debut albums of 2015," describing it as "tense, thrilling, and a bit frightening." The Quietus wrote that "In its breadth of ambition and stunningly realised sounds, Dark Energy delivers more than just a new twist on an established style [...] it maps out an inspiring and tantalising glimpse of electronic music's future." Referring to the producer's roots in the Chicago dance style known as footwork, The Guardian wrote "Jlin is an artist who belongs to her genre, but has an eye on where it could go next." Resident Advisor stated that "Jlin has plenty to say, and she has a remarkably strong and distinctive voice with which to say it."
