 According to turntablist Jason Parsons, Questamation was supposed to be Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker's "hello to the world". In many respects, he's right; though the duo's EP Welding the C:/ was a bit of a hit in the Greater Toronto Area – enough to drag them out of the total obscurity that saw each band member working jobs half way across North America – they didn't really hit it big anywhere else. That Welding the C:/ was such a popular EP was somewhat surprising. Though carried by the strength of singles "2 15/16" and especially "Hollow Point Sniper Hyperbole", the group's brand of electronica and drum and bass on the other four tracks were kind of eccentric in the way only a group that calls themselves Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker could be eccentric. Questamation sees Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker change direction; the ambience and drum and bass influences have been done away with in favour of the more commercial friendly aspects of "Hollow Point Sniper", but that doesn't mean they've lost any of their weirdness or originality. Questamation's sound is still rather distinct and simply sees Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker taking it down a different direction....full text |

| But they are an amazing duo, I was introduced to them by a friend in Toronto (where they are from) who bought me the album. I must say that this has some amazing songs 10 out of the 12 I absolutely love and the other 2 I really like. I recommend this album 110%, once you've heard Cloudboy and Laces Out you'll know I'm right =) happy listening!...full text |

| Label: Smashing World Records Rating: 11½ What this record needs is more cowbell. Everything else is on this genre-bending CD. So why not cowbell? The duo who comprise USS have gone out of their way here to encompass all aspects of modern pop. One minute you think you’ve got some ’70s keyboard progster on the spin, the next it’s A Flock of Seagulls (sorry, that was below the belt). There’s bad sci-fi space rock, scratching rap and hip-hop dance beats, Oasis-like psychedelia, old school funk and maybe even a hint of Blue Oyster Cult, not to mention rolling seascapes, crickets, howling coyotes and campfire crackles. This is a record that’s sure to create lots of buzz (it actually started last year) and then ultimately turn everybody off....full text |
