Review from Wire Magazine (March 2010):
"There’s been a buzz recently about the crossover between indie rock and R&B following The Dirty Projectors’ magnificent “Stillness Is The Move”, which gained a degree of legitimacy via a cover by Solange Knowles. That comparison is mostly spurious, though, as it is in the case of Casey Dienel’s White Hinterland project. For sure, the cool, collected vocals are set within an environment of looped rhythms and electronic interference, but there’s little to make Electrik Red spill their “drank” and more to inspire wistful gazing onto snowcovered landscapes. This isn’t a criticism of the music itself, however, the glacial quality of which could teach The XX a thing or two about making effective and affecting minimal pop."
