  1. 10.0 |   Tiny Mix Tapes

    PRODUCT relies on amiable, nonchalant, subconscious confusion
    Read Review

  2. 9.0 |   Spin

    To say that PRODUCT leaves you wanting more is an understatement, beginning and ending with EDM you can’t dance to, building and toppling all kinds of aural Legos in between
    Read Review

  3. 8.0 |   Exclaim

    A snapshot of an exciting artist whose tightrope walk between sweet and scary, pop and avant-garde, has yielded some of the best singles of the past few years
    Read Review

  4. 8.0 |   NOW

    A concise introduction to a producer who has quickly crafted a style and perspective all his own
    Read Review

  5. 8.0 |   The Irish Times

    Throughout, Long’s sense of what it takes to generate instant sugar highs and sonic endorphins is always on show
    Read Review

  6. 8.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Product is strangely reminiscent of the greatest hits model many bands employ. Songs repackaged, sometimes re-arranged but always re-sold
    Read Review

  7. 8.0 |   Evening Standard

    He’ll irritate the hell out of the unsuspecting — but if you like this sort of thing, you’ll love it
    Read Review

  8. 8.0 |   The FT

    Its eight tracks both satirise and celebrate pop music’s disposability
    Read Review

  9. 8.0 |   The Observer

    Product still sounds disruptive, a sound pushing the limits of what constitutes pop and what is just an annoying noise you are inexplicably paying money for
    Read Review

  10. 8.0 |   Beardfood

    The pitch-up vocals are as high as the bass is low. You need this product
    Read Review

  11. 8.0 |   PopMatters

    A prismatic take on the London producer's work so far that solidifies his controversial aesthetics
    Read Review

  12. 8.0 |   The Music

    This is one of the finest left-of-field pop releases of the year; hyperactive, so cute it's sickening and utterly unique in the landscape of 2015
    Read Review

  13. 7.5 |   Under The Radar

    A bubblegum blowing onslaught of songs old and new
    Read Review

  14. 7.5 |   Pretty Much Amazing

    The bottom line is this: Product is a great album, even though it isn't exactly surprisingly great
    Read Review

  15. 7.0 |   No Ripcord

    PRODUCT is truly what you make of it - both highly addictive and somewhat unfinished
    Read Review

  16. 7.0 |   Uncut

    They never outstay their welcome or settle into anything as complacent as a groove. Print edition only

  17. 6.7 |   Consequence Of Sound

    If it doesn’t make Sophie the most vital producer, it at least makes Product one of the more mischievous music objects under the current atmosphere
    Read Review

  18. 6.6 |   Pitchfork

    So the main problem with PRODUCT, ironically enough, is one of format
    Read Review

  19. 6.0 |   Q

    Hyperreal digital techno-pop, with optional sex toy. Print edition only

  20. 4.0 |   The Guardian

    Product has nothing new to add to the conversation about pop’s relationship to artifice and consumerism
    Read Review

  21. 4.0 |   Crack

    The more abrasive stretches of fizzing liquid and sticking latex, feel like an extensive think-piece that doesn’t really know how to make its concluding point
