«Peter Memmer is originally from Germany and is a former classical dancer who used to live in Portugal until very recently - the cover photo was taken by Peter at a typical portuguese Carnival festivity at Loulé - before moving again to another european country, Spain, if I'm not mistaken. Musically, one could easily think of Peter's work like something between Manitoba/Caribou and Kieran Hebden's Four Tet: Contemporary electronic pop with traces of pop-rock from last century. On the other hand, Eye also touches fringes of good old experimental territory, and even some electroacoustics too, churning out some nice drones and minimal textures somewhere along the middle part of 'Plays'. But the keyword here is 'Pop' without a shadow of a doubt. Excellent release!»

Reviews:
«Difficile de ranger cet album dans une catégorie, de le rattacher à uns style, tant la musique de Eye renvoie à des tas de choses et à rien de précis en même temps… Déjà la pochette en dis long sur le côté bizarre de la chose.
Allemand de naissance, Peter Memmer s’amuse d’entrée de jeu à brouiller les pistes en mélangeant des tas de sons, captés ici et là (sans doute lors de ces voyages), des beats (broken beat, hip hop…) et des notes de musique, quelles viennent de synthés, d’instruments samplés ou sources encore.
On pense par moment à DJ Shadow (surtout sur Claustrophobic), à Four Tet aussi… bref tout ça pour dire que ce patchwork musical a quelque chose de très rafraîchissant, de très inventif, de ludique (d’où le titre ?), que ça fonctionne plutôt bien sur les 6 titres écoutés et qu’on ne peut que conseiller la découverte de ce ep.»
