“Its a remarkable debut, covering so much ground yet keeping things restrained enough to have a perfect fluency about it. I was instantly struck by the way its cute without actually being overly so, noisy yet structured and multi-layered without being overly complex. Its wonderfully melodic, quirky, touching and tender, and the guest artists feel very much part of the fabric of the album and band, making the whole album seamless under the careful guidance of Tarnovski, Knoflicek and Federsel.” (Ian Hawgood)

“Post-pop reverie. Minimalist and atmospheric glitch-pop located between the most narcotic and panoramic post-rock, the naive electronics of Tujiko Noriko, Dorine Muraille’s collages and the pop deconstruction of early Ensemble or So.” (PlayGround Mag)

"This totally hits the spot. Recommended!" (Electroacoustic Tales)

"Honestly, i haven’t heard something that ephemeric from Europe for a long, long time (since múm in 2004, perhaps?), which for me makes this music even more valuable and worth checking." (Refreaked)

"Definitely a contender for album of the year!" (Soundscaping)

" It’s sweet, a little disembodied and tricky, not quite tender. A fun record." (François Couture, All Music Guide)

“Gurun Gurun’s 12 track debut album is a balancing act of frenetic yet sedate melodic layering.” (Alex Gibson, Fluid Radio)”

about

Gurun Gurun Prague, Czechia

"GG are a Czech quartet made up of Jára Tarnovski, Ondřej Ježek, Tomáš Knoflíček and Federsel. They are the inventors of an original declension of alternative pop, which melds deconstructions of typical pop songs, glitch electronica and bizarre sonorities."
(Chain D.L.K.)

"GG’s tracks strike a nice balance between natural sounds and computer deconstruction." (Foxy Digitalis)
