"SUPERENLIGHTENED, a highlight here, is an uptempo electronic synth-pop romp graced with a Steve strangeesque vocal and hypnotic Underworldstyle rhythms. It typifies the fusion of ’80s influences such as Aha, Duran Duran, Talking Heads and synth duos like Erasure and Pet Shop Boys. But it’s not merely a hark back to the early days — Relation have a 21st century studio suss that makes this album so enjoyable."

"An electro duo from Southend, childhood friends Andrew Leary and Oliver Keech have produced a fine album. Harking back to the 80s for inspiration – David Byrne, Talk Talk, Depeche Mode – they have written some great songs and added the gloss of modern production."

"AFTER listening to Do You Know How To Feel It?, the new EP from The Diogenes Club, I feel I do. The previously instrumental act have enlisted vocalist Paul Giles for this four-track release, and he adds a Pet Shop Boys-esque melodic nonchalance to the group's pulsating synths, wonky instrumentation and chillout beats. The result is a collection that you can file next to some of 2009's best dance releases, such as Empire Of The Sun's Walking On A Dream and labelmates Relation's Fear Of Night.

"There's no shortage of quality song-writing on this set, and although the production is smooth, there's also plenty of texture woven into the sonic fabric of the tracks. There are some gritty distorted guitar sounds to be found on 'Way Outside,' for example."

"This is a fantastic nostalgic album, while it has been given a glossy new coating so it can hold own in today's music scene. Relation should be at the forefront of the latest electro-pop craze with this sophisticated album."
