  3. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    Dust’s skewed approach to synthpop, funk and electronica feels unbridled and explorative, serving as a reminder that pulling from a variety of influences can produce sparkling results when done by a capable pair of hands

  5. 8.0 |   Mojo

    Offering new surprises with every listen. Print edition only

  9. 8.0 |   Clash

    It's one of the best albums to have been released this year, which says a lot about Dust's ability as a composer. One thing's for sure - he certainly has it in him to make a great album

  13. 7.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    He finds himself lost in a musical Bermuda Triangle, rambling between groggy laptop lo-fi, expansive Sun Araw prog and straight up flamboyant funk

  14. 6.7 |   Consequence Of Sound

    The charm of Inji comes in its ability to induce swaying in its more depressing moments

  15. 6.0 |   DIY

    This is a pop artist finding his feet, not some musical scientist solving an impossible puzzle
    Read Review

  16. 6.0 |   The Observer

    Inji feels disjointed at moments but Eastgate’s stoned insouciance papers most of the cracks

    A fantastic feat and feast of prime-time electicism
