Under Moonlight has been played multiple times on Tom Robinson's BBC 6 Music show and named by Sherwood Radio as their "#1 Unsigned Track of 2009" with this to say about it "Under Moonlight is as infectious and if not better produced than any of the signed music in my collection to date. If I had this on Vinyl it would be scratched to death by now! Awesome! 10/10 JUST BUY IT!"

93 Feet East named them one of their 93 Picks describing them as "Filed somewhere between a friendlier Death From Above 1979 and a nastier Hot Chip, Neon Highwire specialise in, in their own words “nihilistic deeply distorted-bass driven house”."

Subba-Cultcha's review of Luminescence said "...this is certainly one of the more accomplished efforts of the month – bouncy, engaging and interesting. Yummers"

Rock Sound reviewed Luminescence positively saying "Two years on the scene, London gents Neon Highwire have been cutting their angular-chops in all the right places, and it shows... Already playlisted by the BBC and with plans for a UK tour this year, it looks like the future’s not only bright for this trio, it’s neon."

Musosguide named them a "tip for 2010".

RebelRiffs review of Luminescence stated "With a great cross between electronica and chippy rock, Neon Highwire are a fine example of the health of English music. The problem lies in the health of the English music business whose blindness to the potential of bands like this will be remembered and noted, come the f****** revolution."

No Fiction said "6 Music’s Tom Robinson faves Neon Highwire harness synth, steel and string into something rather marvellous indeed. If Metronomy had stayed a three piece and not gone all shite then perhaps the output would not be so far away from NHW."

God Is In The TV wrote "Their sound is a melting pot of eclecticism tied together with a coherence which gives them their distinctive style. Part electronic dance machine, part balls-out rock, part pop darlings, there’s a maturity in the sound borne from a near-fanatical perfectionism...".

Daily Dischord's review of Luminescence stated "Neon Highwire are a band worthy of your attention, so make sure you check this infectious EP out as soon as possible.".


Easy Music for Difficult Ears said "Rather than lay claim to overly simple rhythms a chord progression, Neon Highwire's songs are laced with touches of elegance and intricate meanderings that makes them rather nice to listen - an impression is also left that these may also be killer dancefloor chooooooons."

They've been featured in West Side Will's showcase & Andy Quirk's podcast "Hits Of The Near Future".

Where The Wild Things Are described the live show as "...a crazy kind of electro-dance-funk noise going on that somehow kept reminding me of the Mighty Boosh. It is only enhanced by the leaping around and flailing of the band members and we have to give a special shout out to Steve-o’s boiler suit, Kanye West, flashing belt combo."

London Tunes said "And now we’re blessed with Neon Highwire. Their tunes come at you at breakneck speed and leave you wondering if their self-description of “nihilistic deeply distorted bass driven house” is sufficiently intense."

The Other Side Of The River say "most importantly of all: they’re really rather good."

James Theaker, NME radio said of single Under Moonlight "The song structure is great and the length is just about right for a radio edit."
