Critical reception

Heidi Chapson of Exclaim! said, "From electro to Squarepusher-esque drum & bass antics to melodic avant-gardism, the scope on this 19-track compilation is broad but cohesive, all presented in a timeless fashion."[2] Dave Segal of Stylus Magazine gave the album a grade of B+, saying, "Rephlex remains one of the world's quirkiest and most inquisitive labels."[3] Heath K. Hignight of XLR8R commented that "Bochum Welt's 'Radiopropulsive' and Yee-King's 'Goodnight Toby' are perfect examples of the Rephlex sound: a warp of perky melody and punchy acid feel that is at once culturally avant garde and musically retro."[4]

gollark: Plus, it restricts the available codepoint range mildly.
gollark: In some cases UTF-16 is better, such as when encoding Chinese text without English bits or anything, but a general purpose compression algorithm compresses both to basically the same size anyway.
gollark: And for representing most text it's much less efficient than ÜTF-8.
gollark: It *seems* fixed-width, so people will go around programming as if it is, but actually it isn't and stuff can take multiple, er, code units, thus bugginess.
gollark: UTF-16 is incredibly bees!
