Djaikovski is a great example of genuine talent operating outside of the dance manistream that won't degenerate into complex noise loops. Innovative composition coupled with signature Macedonian accents warrant this piece a very high mark in my personal collection.” - COOL AND STRANGE MUSIC MAGAZINE
Sounds like a soundclash between DEAD CAN DANCE and BREAKBEAT ERA via Ennio Morricone and Lalo Schifrin. Fantastic. - SURF 107.2 RADIO
Presenting his first solo album, Djaikovski mixes drum’n’bass and break-beat schemes with exotic melodies from the Balkans and cooks this up into a groovy stew with chunks of acid jazz, funk, ambient and dub. The sound of Macedonian chants and the traditional instruments introduce a unique new “world music”. - TOKYO JOURNAL MAGAZINE
Fantastic stereophonic production that jumps from speaker to speaker on your stereo grabs you by the collar and moves your body to the beat of the music involuntarily. Absolutely great. - ARTS WEEKLY MAGAZINE
“Exotic and brilliant, Djaikovski does things with music that just shouldn’t be possible. Djaikovski is, without any doubt, a musical genius and a true alchemist of sound. And Homebound is a masterpiece of sonic artistry and perfection. “ - ELECTROAGE
