A baroquely enthusiastic 5-star review hails Alex Smoke’s Paradolia as a modernist Soma release full of polyrhythms, dub-nocturnal patterns, and post‑Kraftwerkian flair. Specific praise lands on Persona, Snider, Left Drift, Prima Materia, and Never Want To See You Again. The reviewer crowns Smoke as one of the sharpest European technotronica talents.
