Other music writers have referred to Rezz’s music as sounding “dark”, as well as “menacing”, “mechanical”, “haunting and industrial”. Spotify’s outlet For the Record profiled Rezz, calling her “one of the most highly regarded producers of downtempo soundscapes”, and saying she “strikes a firm balance between minimal original tech compositions and the all-heavy bass.
