"I first heard of the Micronauts from their remix of Underworld's "Bruce Lee", and I was so impressed that I bought this cd at the store, and it fell in love with it. I turned to my roommate and said "this is the stuff they should be playing at dance clubs." They are a French techno act, and there are some similarities that can be drawn between them and other french acts such as Daft Punk, but I think the Micronauts do it much better. The first 4 tracks are all premixed, and they keep the flow going well. Track 5 really sucks, and then the rest of the album is good. Highly recommended to those that like experimental techno. it's got slow, hard beats, and playful crazy sounds. get your copy."

"What a shock! I couldn't believe my ears when I first heard this CD at a friends place. This is the most excited extreme excellent piece of electronic dance music i've heard for a while. I can't just compare it to anything else. Saturation. [k]racked up bleeps. Sample delights. Aural experimentators & open minded DJs, please click here."
What ever happened to the Micronauts?

"Four stars for this take-no-prisoners lesson in bleeping basslines and electro/techno wall-of-sound, but I must ask: WHERE ARE THE MICRONAUTS NOW? They released a few amazing singles (THE JAG, JAZZ), turned in some staggering remixes for other artists (UNDERWORLD, OMD), and then after releasing BLEEP seven years ago...NOTHING? Christophe Monier has been in the French house/electro scene for years - what a tragic loss for music fans everywhere. Come back to the five-and-dime, Micronauts, Micronauts!"
