"Best New Music" - "On his fourth album, the expert producer comes into his own as a solo artist with a hushed, finely tuned album that showcases his unassuming voice and impeccable songcraft".

"Mills leaves his ego off Mutable Set and serves the songs with care, attention, and tenderness. And while this record sounds bleak on the surface, there's a strange sense of comfort in these songs; they acknowledge the sad state of the world even while attempting to transcend its darkness and uncertainty".

"Grammy-nominated producer's fourth solo set: This time, he's collaborated with Cass McCombs to produce a vision drenched in atmosphere, underpinned by Mills' wispy, often whispered vocals and full of engaging contradictions. Sometimes dense and claustrophobic, sometimes light and spacious, it veers from the symphonic climax to the centrepiece "Money Is The One True God", to the quietly insistent "Vanishing Twin", which ends with a squall reminiscent of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, whose former keyboardist Aaron Embry features heavily. There's so much going on that each sitting reveals new nuances and added twists of slender wonder".
