Fever Dream is Alias' most inspired and dynamic record in years. Spurred by the psychedelic sound and off-kilter groove of electronic experimentalists like Flying Lotus, Modeselektor and Bibio, he ditched quantized beats, embraced warmth, and set the whole thing wobbling to a warped dance pulse.

Fever Dream is Alias’ sixth studio album for anticon. It follows Resurgam, if only sequentially. This is not to suggest that Fever Dream is an absolute departure from a prior aesthetic, because it’s not. But there is a different quality to Alias’ recent work that puts it, conceptually.

Ali Maloney of The Skinny gave the album 4 stars out of 5, describing it as 'a suave cocktail of rolling snares, haunting synth structures, downtempo dub and jittering slices of shoegaze – tastefully evoking the strengths of various modern masters, from FlyLo to Amon Tobin – as swirling, cut-up vocals bounce gleefully around in the distance.'[7]
