"Lumis is a one man hip-hop behemoth. He spins, he spits and he gets down with some of the big names in the game..."

— Chris Durant, Times-Standard

"An all-star cast including Trick Daddy, Ja Rule, Petey Pablo, and Big Daddy Kane brings to authentic life this story about the ups and the downs of the hip-hop music business. Starring Wood Harris (The Wire, Next Day Air) and Jamie Hector (Heroes, The Wire), and set against the gloss and glamour of Miami, the film is directed by Oscar-nominee Peter Spirer (Notorious B.I.G. - Bigger Than Life, Beef), and features the track SOUL SEARCHIN' written and performed by Lumis."

— Monumental, Rugged Entertainment

"...one very cool, inventive sound. The CD consists of 15 self-produced instrumental tracks interspersed with cutting, scratching, and mixing vocals with a synthesis of natural and manmade resonance. The common thread throughout is awesome beats. "Who Are You," asks the big questions... "Solid" features straight-up great dance music that insists upon movement in the listener. Rating: **** Pretty Darn Good!"

— Lily Emeralde and Emma Dyllan, Phosphorescence Magazine

"Lumis, a connotation of 'illuminate' also is defined to mean 'enlighten,' as with knowledge. One guy who lives up to that depiction is CA based artist Lumis ... His tracks, like 'Who Are You' and 'Planetary Head Bob,' are filled with beats that have their own unique sound."

— Ashley Frett, UBO Magazine

"Lumis is super-talented and we were lucky to have [him] on board."

— Jesse Valenciana, Fresh Films / Fresh Sounds

"...this disc is really cool and deserves more attention from music fans!"

— Elvis, The Music Review

"As a solo artist I have to say that the man is a prodigy musical genius. Hypothetical Questions and Rhetorical Conversations is a 15 track album with flawless mixing and comes with a really big chill factor... Lumis is definitely running on all 8 cylinders and there just seems to be no stopping the man. Constantly gigging every other day of the month as a solo act and with his other two projects he's really ready to explode to the next level."

— Will O., Latitude 32º

"…groovily infectious Black Eyed Peas-esque electronica rap flava spills out on stage in an engaging show."

— Roy O., Prefix Magazine

"Puma, Timberland, and DJ Lumis - bringing you the finest quality in threads and beats."

— Underground Station

"Electronic energy meets lyrical, hip-hop mania"

— Jason Napolitano, Innerphase NY

"Lumis has the quick hands you'd expect from an old-school soul who truly appreciates the art form he's adopted. He lays down a foundation of beats that can stand on its own, and the high-energy vocals and slick verbal flow ratchet up the ante until the portrait is both complete and colorful."

— Lauri Shaw, Music Connection Magazine
