"An opiated synth siren then provides a hypnotic rhythmic pulse for the atmospheric layering to cling onto, the succinct sound palette creating a mesmerising, quietly suspenseful slice of ambient electronica that locks you in and won't let go."

"the perfect soundtrack for our tech-induced ADHD, screen-gazing, app-swiping, dopamine-hankering existences, where short videos, enviable social media updates and disinformation snippets from mysterious sources are the new long books, and constantly craved."

"a pleasingly resigned main synth refrain, that respectfully and without overstaying its welcome, renews its way through the sparse electronic landscape."

"its more sedate and fluid nature - drones and cello melting into each other, lightly anchored by some static hiccups."

"melts static crackle into cultured low-gravity drones before distorting and evolving a subtly melodic, gently rhythmic nature"

"The new single is a two-track affair that artfully combines start-of-club/mixtape beats with after-the-club, "what day is it?" atmospherics"

"To call this loop-based music would do it an injustice, but there's looping and then there's this sort of looping. The sounds are beautifully crafted, worth repeating and melted into each other,"

" It’s a wild, seriously plugged-in and percussive trip, and Birmingham now has a worthy experimental electronic chapter to its reggae and rock history."

"The track then starts to glitch, breathe, twinkle and squawk into life, the disparate sounds finding unity in their singularity, joy in their diversity and offering good-natured comfort to the listener in return. "

"It's a delicate, thoughtful, quietly experimental, beautifully crafted gaze at social isolation, and a poignant electronic music reflection on a widespread, oft-disccussed issue in this age of urbanisation and technology."

It's a spirit-lifting slice of electronic music and bodes well for the album. Keep an eye on this guy.

"the perfect soundtrack for our flickering, small-screen lit and shaped, tech overlorded, autocratic creep and doom-scrolling angst-ridden, twilight zone."

"Arabic vocals, coupled with the speaker-worrying bass, contemporary and futuristic riddims plus the take-no-prisoners vibe"

"Fragments is not a remix record, nor a revisionist exercise, but an intentional breaking - which sounds quite painful, and sort of is."

"He's obviously got a soft spot for leftfield, restless ambient music"

"widescreen synth-powered cinematic grandeur, pulsing downtempo delights, cosmos contemplating ambient and glistening soundscapes."

"making the world of ambient electronic music that bit weirder and more colourful"

"knobs are tweaked to inject some chopped and screwed acid nostalgia as a cosmically inclined organ teases dimensions that we so often sense"

"Salerno continues his journey through shadowy, flickering street lamp lit ambience, a place low on population but rich in atmosphere"

"synth pads shimmer in the light of two suns, as machine sounds of all descriptions are united by mind expanding intent "

"This is electronic music for the head as well as the hips"

"he's just released Altavistic - his debut album, and it's as idiosyncratic and wonderful an electronic music excursion as I'd hoped for. "

"he's really on a mission to explore the possibilities that have opened up since his slide into electronic music realms."

"quizzical ambient atmospherics of the album title track and the twinkling post rocktronics of "Torna Timur?""
