"Dj Goldenchyld's excellent Ear Infections, meanwhile, treads the middle
ground between the other two (mix cd's). It's not quite a traditional album,
but it's not just a mixtape either. There are few instances where Goldenchyld
stands back and lets a record play. The rest of the time, he's making honest-to-god
songs out of beats, samples, and scratches. This ain't GC merely playing records,
nor is it him using records to make beats for vocalists, nor is it a super scratch-happy
finger workout masquerading as songs. It's his own musical expression- a turntablists
attempt to engage in the true compositional aspects of making music. As such,
it's not just a great listening experience, but a positive step in the continuing
evolution of djing." – Pete Babb

"Yay for the first mixed album in about 5 years that I can actually get
down to. Bay area tablist Goldenchyld from the Fingerbangerz crew comes with
a wide ranging (although predominantly laid-back) array of material and drops
an instant classic on this one. It does sort of teeter the boundary of the whole
mashup craze- ehh fuck, it pretty much is a mashup tape. But even though the
whole mashup thing is nearing the end of it‚s rope (just like the trucker
hats and Teenage Millionaire shirts before it) it still has a couple fresh angles
that haven‚t yet been exploited. I have to admit, I‚m not real keen
on hearing 50 Cent over Jefferson Starship‚s "We Built This City
On Rock And Roll," and thankfully, Goldenchyld keeps his rock/whatever
else/hip hop experiments relatively distant from the realm of the ridiculous.
And while I'm not going to give up any of the tracks he shoves together on Ear
Infections, I will say this: his remix of "Elevators" alone makes
the cd worth buying." - Vapors Staff

"Representing the Fingerbangerz crew out of the Bay Area comes Dj Goldenchyld.
Straying from your typical hip-hop mixed CD, Goldenchyld blesses you with an
eclectic mix of music from various genres. All of it mixed and scratched just
enough to keep you grooving while you listen to it at work. Not scratch-heavy
at all (which is what you might have expected), the CD is comprised of smooth
down-tempo jams. Imagin driving over the Golden Gate Bridge on a Sunday afternoon
puffin' on a fatty with your woman ridin' shotgun giving you a handjob."
