Pitchfork 2009 : ‘In the last few years, nobody has done dark, moody, emotive dubstep better than Bristol’s Peverelist. His sense of space and percussion and his ear for melody has proven peerless– and he’s kept a headstrong sense of direction when so much is changing’.

Resident Advisor 2009 : ‘Ten singles on, Punch Drunk has steadily forged a reputation for putting out some of the most forward-thinking bass-oriented music around today’.
