"The song structures constantly meander and fragment and often dissolve into silence and drone before reconstituting. If this idea seems baffling, it makes no more sense at all in the listening, and by turns hypnotises, frustrates and dazzles. This obstreperousness will only further alienate the doubters, but you cannot fault Jaar's preposterous ambition".

"Sirens is a thoughtful study in contrasts, both musical and political. It's only Nicolas Jaar's second LP, but it is the mark of an enduring electronic composer ... Sirens represents a full reemergence, as close as he may ever get to kicking over the mic stand. He doesn't reveal many new tricks, but his knowledge of his own palette is masterful in every moment".

"Vurdering: B" - "'Jaar has signature tones - every musician does, and it's hard to escape them - but he steps past expectations to make a political statement that's still subdued, jaunty, and sharp. Each time Jaar resurfaces in the music world, it's with a change of face. That's what makes his releases such a treat. In time, maybe they'll impact the very world he fears he's failing to save".

"Allerede før de 41 minutter på 'Sirens' var til ende, sad jeg målløs tilbage over den idérigdom og sofistikerede omgang med virkemidler fra hele det elektroniske spektrum, der springer ind fra alle sider, da indledende strækøvelser har passeret ørerne".

"Politik, man kan danse til: Chilensk-amerikanske Nicolas Jaar går på underskøn opdagelse i kosmisk jazz, moderne cumbia, barndomserindringer, samtidskritik og historisk bevidsthed".
