Reception

Option described The Journey to Planet POD as "a unique ambient project that mixes elements of "found" sounds into an intricate web that borders on rapture."[5] Sonic Boom praised the album for its "invigorating programming style, unique percussion, and vivid samples" and called it "a trip to another planet, someplace where the listener needs to never stop moving to the music, and the dj never stops mixing up a new track."[6]
