Review
On this album where Aarset alone heaps up layers of guitars, bass and percussion, totally integrated with the processing and programming constituting a dream like landscape, with tasteful creative contributions from producer Jan Bang, known from the annual Punkt festival in Kristiansand, with his samples and effects, here in collaborations with Erik Honoré, who mixed this album together with Jan Bang and Jan Erik Kongshaug. In spite of the technology the guitar sound is naked as can be, and the music reveals the full breadth of the flowing, imaginative and unorthodox performance of Aarset. He delivers an album in a soft mode, that keeps coming so close to silence without ever actually reaching it, with great depth, dark shades and trance generating twists. Dream Logic is a tastefully sensitive masterpiece from this style finished guitarist who constantly amazes with his ability to find new exciting soundscapes.[1][5]

The Independent review awarded the album 4 stars,[2] the Allmusic.com review awarded the album 4 stars,[3] and the review of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album dice 5.[4]
