"Sleepy Tigers is the lead off single from Her Space Holiday's full-length, 'XOXO, Panda And The New Kid Revival.' In addition to the title track, three new compositions are included on the release. These tracks are not outtakes or throwaways from the recording of the full-length, but are in fact fully realized works completed in a fit of inspiration as the single was being compiled. For longtime fans of Her Space Holiday, those anxious to hear the new creative direction taken on XOXO, Panda And The New Kid Revival, or new listeners yet to discover what makes Her Space Holiday one of Mush's most beloved acts, Sleepy Tigers is the perfect preview of what's to come."

"Recording as Her Space Holiday since 1996, Marc Bianchi creates sugar-coated dreamscapes floating alongside bittersweet narratives of life. Let's Get Quiet Vol. 2 is a four-track instrumental EP. Opener 'OSAF' harkens back to the electro-infused beats of hip-hop's early days. 'Wrapped in Plastic' is classic Her Space Holiday: intricate string flourishes, intriguing breakdowns, and melodic refrains over electronic drums. On 'Panda Strikes,' Arabesque synth lines weave through thick bass lines and dancefloor-ready drumbeats. The EP's closer, 'Wishbone,' is all lulling tropicalia, as dense string arrangements and lush melodies float over dreamy production. Let's Get Quiet Vol. 2 is a collection that displays styles from Bianchi's musical palette not explored on his more traditional releases and a wonderful addition to the Her Space Holiday catalog."

"An all-star line-up joins Marc Bianchi for The Young Machines Remixed, a companion piece to his 2003 Mush release, The Young Machines. Tracks from the original album are dissected and reconstructed, and the remixers all exceed expectations. The styles of the acts involved are as diverse as they are impressive. Mixes by Matmos, Stereolab, Super Fury Animals, Dntel, Arab Strap, Boom Bip, Nobody, The Album Leaf, Broken Spindles, and Blockhead all hold true to key elements of the originals and build around them in their own unique styles. From IDM-influenced electronic through psychedelic hiphop meltdowns, from organic reworkings to Japanese-influenced kitsch, The Young Machines Remixedsucceeds as a cohesive album while allowing the artists involved to shine on their own terms."

"Change... love... death... infidelity... confession... a break up. Marc Bianchi is nearly surgical in his ability to slice delicate songs of love, loss, hope, despair, and optimism out of one very hard year. His striking new release as Her Space Holiday is an authentic foray into intelligent dream-pop. The production is everything one expects from Her Space Holiday; intricate string arrangements, analog synth patterns, lush guitar-like drones and tasteful drum programming abound, but the songwriting elevates the album to its elite status. Traditional song structures take unexpected turns throughout, highlighting the introspection and vulnerability most often missing in electronic music. The Young Machines is a ten-song encapsulation of a year on the edge and Her Space Holiday's most complete and personal release."
