"Scis" reviewed by SPEX (DE)

“What previous albums such as "Popp" only heralded now unfolds here as one joyride through the appliances of an exceptional brain.” - SPEX (DE)

"Scis" reviewed by DASFILTER (DE)

“Scis is constantly in motion and sucks you into an uncategorizable, constantly changing groove. It is all the more impressive that Markus Popp never loses the thread in a second (...). This three-quarters of an hour you just rush through, it leaves you completely satisfied - and flabbergasted in a way that is not quite understandable.”

Fantastic "Scis" review in TREBLE

"Oval’s Markus Popp is one of the few electronic artists to provide a strong challenge to Aphex Twin and Autechre’s well-guarded thrones, producing work that lives in the same world of digitalist sound collage and electronic portraiture."

"Scis doesn’t feel like a 2020 album but only because it doesn’t feel like it belongs to any time at all really; like the other greats of the electronic music field, it feels like it could be picked up and put on decades hence and still feel like a record out-of-time, arriving from some world where they measure days by some other dimension."
