'' stated "By all rights, at least the first half of this review ought to act as penance for my write-up of Gonjasufi’s debut, A Sufi & A Killer, on this very site. Upon its release earlier this year, the main emotion it evoked was a strong sense of confusion, as though hidden underneath its abrasive surface was something greater just out of reach. It turns out that was exactly the case; several months down the line it has slowly burned its way into the list of 2010’s most accomplished – if least obvious - albums. The trick lies in its deft fusion of old and new." Martin Skivington of '' The Skinny'' added "Sumach 'Gonjasufi' Ecks is an esoteric vocalist whose excellent debut album ''A Sufi And A Killer'', released earlier this year, saw him link up with major players from the alt-beats scene, including Flying Lotus and Gaslamp Killer. ''The Caliph's Tea Party'' brings an equally subversive band of audiophiles on board to remix the entire album. There's no lack of talent here — Bibio, Dam Mantle and Bear In Heaven all chip in — so the results are unsurprisingly impressive.
