  1. 8.5 |   Crack

    Expertly transposes the dark matter of her DJ sets into an intense and impressive debut album

  2. 8.0 |   All Music

    A fascinating debut album, demonstrating the right way to transition from an underground, 12"-only electronic producer to a full-scale album artist

  3. 8.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Effectively Discreet Desires is a classic electro album, with techno leanings. It all sounds authentically retro and filthy

  4. 8.0 |   Exclaim

    She's attempted to present a unified piece with this album, rather than a selection of similar tracks, and it's a gambit that's paid off in spades

  5. 7.4 |   Resident Advisor

    Her dynamic subtlety and deft songwriting place it a notch above the pack

  6. 6.0 |   The Skinny

    This is music best suited to sweaty underground lockers where its visceral qualities take precedence

  7. 6.0 |   Mojo

    Hauff gives you the feeling that there's something very wrong, and leaves you to make up your own nasty stories. Print edition only

  8. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    A hugely inventive record which indicates that there’s much more to come in time from Hauff
