American Pancake’s chief editor Rob Donker Curtius has written a review of Deep Fondness Call Centre on AmericanPancake.com. The full feature and release delves into the full immersive EP track by track. 

“James Mulhern crafts some trippy sounds, pop indie, dream pop, blendo pop, I am not sure what to call it but it pulls you in and then distracts you with evocative interruptions. –

-Unabashedly shape shifting itself and our emotions. The track Deep (Deeply Fond) is a bouncy pop love affair with sort of surf pop drums co-existing with sci-fi arpeggios, surprising and time transportive and then to that evocative interruption I mentioned earlier (you will see). Some of the tracks feel retro sci-fi in the sense that you hear coins dropping in those now antiquated phone booths (do they even exist anymore?). The track Normal is divergently sweet in a straight forward way, a telephone call to someone you love (maybe) from that relic phone booth. Nowhere Too sucks you out of the dream by feeling more like a busker dinking around or composing on the fly. It is raw with stuttered mistakes, imperfect, maybe intentionally.” –American Pancake
