July 29, 2007 - In keeping with tradition, the latest k-rakos album leveler has been released in the stealthiest manner possible--thus ensuring its place in the deep electronic underground. It features eleven completely new tracks which might be described as 'IDM with vocals' and is somewhat more up-tempo than its predecessor.

February 1, 2006 - Patrick Conlan of the Illinois Entertainer writes:

"By splicing cool electric orchestration with stilted Casio-style beats, k-rakos attempts to birth a mutant strand of electronic songcraft. Sprawl is a trippy, trembling head piece that sets the tempo and ambience for the rest of is here. The dead-dance flatness sounds a bit soulless and the dramatic overtones border on the absurd, but the fat, sludgy electronics and asymmetric syncopation have a slippery appeal."
