"Their tunes provoke a cocked head and a grin, but the covers aren't just funny, they're actually good...they rework extremely familiar songs to sound unsettlingly fresh." Village Voice
"Swinging bachelor pad music from a couple of cool retronerds[who] manage to keep lounge music funny without resorting to cheesy excess." Time Out New York
"While these two are having a lot of fun with this music, it's not an amateur night...these guys are fine musicians in their own right [and] it's quite amazing that so much music comes from two performers." All Music Guide
