Spin (12/95, p.63) - Ranked #17 on Spin's list of the `20 Best Albums Of '95.'
Spin (12/95, p.81) - 9 - Near Perfect - "...a fall of light into the urban endzone....Goldie has taken jungle to a more expansive level here, fusing its ominous bad-boy polyrhythms with gorgeous diva vocals, rich piano playing, and upbeat jazzy chords that dissolve into ambient clouds....brings jungle to a new level of cross-fertilization..."
Alternative Press (1/96, p.80) - "...Starting with the increasingly familiar....palette of jungle/drum and bass music, Goldie and his Metalheadz sculpt expansive sonic constructions that elude the linear confines of descriptive language..."
NME (12/23-30/95, pp.22-23) - Ranked #10 in NME's `Top 50 Albums Of The Year' for 1995 - "...an astonishing...symphony of whizzing breakbeats, fluid soundscapes and mind-warping moodswings..."
Melody Maker (12/23-30/95, pp.66-67) - Ranked #8 on Melody Maker's list of 1995's `Albums Of The Year' - "The jungle underground's figurehead....Massive and jaw-droppingly ambitious..."
Village Voice (2/20/96) - Ranked #23 in Village Voice's 1995 Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll.
New York Times (1/6/96, p.C16) - Included in Neil Strauss' list of the Top 10 Albums of `95 - "...the frenetic break beats of England's jungle dance-music rub against lush ambient music, live instruments and a technology-addled sense of soul..."

To appreciate TIMELESS, one must imagine a time when the renegade snares of drum n' bass were alien to Madison Avenue. Hard as it might be to believe now, with the breakbeat science put to the service of peddling anything from automobiles to undergarments, Goldie and his Metalheadz posse blew minds with their 21-minute "Timeless." Diane Charlemagne's voice swoops through a world of synth sirens, bass girders, and riveting breakbeats. Other TIMELESS standouts, including the crushing "Saint Angel" and "Jah The Seventh Seal," are seemingly extracted and distilled from "Timeless." Even now, it's an impressive slab of future-pop.
In 1994, Goldie's was the implacable voice of ragga-punk alienation--and it was the most exciting noise heard from the underground in a long while. In his wake DJs young and old initiated a game of rhythmic/psychedelic one-upmanship and time-stretching insouciance that turned music on its ear. Pirate radio thrived in the early days of jungle. With his sparkling pop sensibilities, Goldie quickly ascended to drum n' bass super-stardom. Tracks such as "This Is A Bad," "Kemistry," and "You & Me" harness jungle's technological flash to R&B's soul. TIMELESS is, at heart, a pop album. As such, it holds up exceptionally well.
