“In an almost shamanistic manner, it was as if he were negotiating an exorcism between himself, his instrument and those assembled to witness his machinated grooves that hovered somewhere on the periphery of drum and bass and industrial, with the briefest of interludes to a more organic soulfulness (and with bits of vocal who-knows-what interspersed amid it all). Exactly who was being exorcised of what became almost immaterial as Demix worked his magic into increasingly intense, nearly seamless sonic highs until they would drop into the echoes of the crowd’s collective memory.” – Shepherd Express

““Step Fourth” opens the EP with some invitingly peppy instrumental hip-hop, and though things grow gothier and more industrial from there, there’s a hookiness that carries through all four tracks, even “The Turn,” the blustery nine-minute circus suite that closes the EP.” (on Havoc Run) – Shepherd Express
“Dark, brooding electronic music that can only be described as intense, and that’s phrasing it lightly. Every track sounds like it could very well be the climax of a horror film, as is the case with the latest release, “Havoc Run”. It’s like sensory overload in a track; drums, pulsating synths, and god knows what else come at you from every angle… it’s totally original.” – Breaking and Entering
“The Demix is an experimental artist that manages to blend genres so cleanly that it’s hard to put his style into a specific genre. The latest, “Python Approach” is a grizzly industrial track, complete with distorted vocals, flooded out droning, and so much noise thrown at your speakers that you’re not sure what to do with yourself at one point or another. There are some well played piano parts, which ultimately succumb to the plethora of distortion surrounding it. This is intense, but it’s exactly what you should expect from The Demix.” – Breaking and Entering
“His craft might be best described as a series of sonic seizures spilling unpredictable intensity across a sea of samples” – onmilwaukee.com
“Trippy descent into dementia” – Onion AV Club
“Loved your twisted dreams.” – John Zorn
