"After the epic releases of Samurai Math Beats and Boku Mo Wakaran, Bogdan was teasing our expectations with a slew of grand escapist EPs but nothing that could hold a candle to those masterworks. With Alright! Bogdan has returned to the frenetic harmonies that made him an electronic musician icon. Alright! is replete with hard driving techno with melody that only he can pull off. The last track 'Goodfellas' is a stirring example of his mastery in electro drum and bass. 8 tracks is just enough for this outing, because the tracks are complete songs without any filler. Sure to satisfy and Bogdan fan as well as anyone interested in the state of Electronic music as a whole. A must own."

Fun Fun Fun

"I've been a fan of Bjork for ages, and more recently got into Aphex Twin/ RDJ and Autechre. I never cared too much about rave music but the more interesting electronica does catch my ears. Bogdan is wonderful because he brings an ego-less sense of humor and abandon to his work. Bogdan is to IDM as the Butthole Surfers are to punk, or Ween are to hard rock. He simultaneously embraces the genre, rocks the crap out of it, and laughs at it. Not just simultaneously but all at the same time! Awesome. If you like to smile while the blips and bleeps go whizzing by at 140bpm, grab this now!"

His musical skills are honed causing his best album yet

"Bogdan, in all albums and aliases, produces very dynamic electronic that tends to capture one's thoughts and pull them into his world. It's visible with this album that Bogdan has tightened his style up, the quality of the music reflects this. Each song is a single entity, it's own musical story. He saves the best for last with some powerful bass and an entrancing synthesized bleepy-braindance.

I am extremely pleased with this production, and as a long-term bogdan fan, consider this album, along with his album "Teddy Bear Magix" under the alias Ice Climber, to be his best work so far."
