Music press reviews of Earthlights:
"… jungle at its core... smartly, cleverly, technically, and perhaps most importantly musically crafted and tied together to create a whole that is rarely seen in the jungle/d.n.b game, then or now. truly unique, varied, broad, yet still cohesive and maintaining consistency and flow and oneness - "Earthlights" is probably the best jungle album you’ve never heard…." 'artbreaker' Ragga-jungle.com June 2006
"Nostramus deserve credit for their accessibility and open-mindedness, on this form they've produced a record that is intriguing and entertaining". Soundbite magazine (Earthlights Review)
"Seething drum'n'bass, dark sound effects and samples culled from an LSD scarred imagination".
