Amazon.co.uk Review
Boom Bip's Seed To Sun comes fresh from his work with Cincinnati geek rap pioneer Doseone, and now that he's firmly ensconced in his new home--the Warp-affiliated hip-hop label Lex--it seems that now's the perfect time for American sound scientist to drop his debut solo album. Seed To Sun isn't exactly hip-hop, and it isn't exactly anything else, either: a mad kaleidoscope of drones and glitches, loops and melodies that displays a passion for organic sounds--cymbal splashes, the thrum of double bass, what sounds suspiciously like a French horn--yet revels in all the multifarious possibilities of digital production. Occasionally, Bip looms a little too close to past electronica templates--let your concentration drift while you're listening to "Closed Shoulders", and you'll swear that someone's popped a Boards Of Canada CD on while you weren't looking. "Pulse All Over" is the album's most plainly beautiful moment--a heavenly drone symphony that'll leave a lump in your throat. And while a couple of excellent collaborations with Anticon rappers Buck 65 and Doseone suggest that maybe Boom Bip is at his best when in a production role rather than fronting as an artist in his own right, Seed To Sun contains enough thrilling moments to justify its own existence. --Louis Pattison
Muzik Magazine, September 2002
"Uneasy listening, a future downbeat classic, ... a beguiling slice of American Gothic, ... should put Boom Bip firmly on the map."
