Overall though, it was a plus, both economically and for the reputation of ViZionARY

How was it received by the critics?

Do you think you can post the next band soon, too?

The critics scoffed at "Keys and Buttons" as "a tasteless and overtly sexual tune that serves no other purpose than clogging up the air waves until another similarly unoriginal track comes along to take its place". However, "Reverse Polarity" has become a cult classic of sorts, and has received a lot of love from those both in and out of IDM circles. The songwriting in that work seems to be the aspect catching people's attention, not so much the musicality.
