What the press is saying about DTE:

The Relish:

"With DTE's new album you can Relax and you can get Excited... either way you'll enjoy what you hear. Go out and pick up a copy, or if your curiosity is perked, head over to one of the stops on their tour and get your first experience of 'Kansas techno'. Go ahead, I dare you!" ~ Hybrid Magazine

"Genre-bending music and poetic lyrics." ~ University of Illinois-Chicago Student Newspaper

". . . tight vocals with smooth melodies...creates an exciting clash between David Gray, Pete Yorn and Dave Matthews." ~ University of Kansas Student Union

"But than I heard the next song ' New theory' with quiet moments and heavy guitar licks. The voice of singer Curtis Hayton brings you a tension from the beginnig of the song. When I say " A very good song" is not good enough. I don't believe that I overdo, when I say " This is a masterpiece". ~ Jan Nederveen, Radio Heerde, Netherlands

"What an innovative album with such different vocals attached to that great indie sound; if you like: New Different Outstanding then this is for you." ~ Tony Bates, Highland 100.7 FM Maldon, VC Australia

"A combination of addicting vocals, meaningful lyrics, and a calming aura makes for an exceptional CD thats perfect for listening to on a laid back Sunday night when youre driving around town." ~ LondonIndie.com

The Sauerkraut:

". . . I was briefly fooled into thinking that listening to more than two songs would be possible." ~ Jason Harper, Pitch Weekly

". . . an emphatic, jubilant ... yawn." ~ Nathan Dinsdale, Pitch Weekly

"I don't know why you played those parts on a mandolin when you could have just played them on guitar." ~ Battle of the Bands Judge
