Oops, I Did It Again! (Cex album)

Pitchfork Media described the music on Oops, I Did It Again! as Kidwell "trying to incorporate a pretty wide spectrum of influences with the fun IDM that's been the bread and butter of his career this far".[2] Despite the humorous album and song titles, the music was a "series of unaffected breakbeats" and "lazy-night melodies" that were similar to intelligent dance music (IDM) albums of the early 1990s.[3] Exclaim! also noted the humorous tone of the album from the inner sleeve art showing Cex murdering a young girl with a steak knife and the comedy sketches that interrupt a few of the tracks.[1]

Oops, I Did it Again! was released by the Tigerbeat6 label on October 12, 2001.[3] It was later released in 2002 by the label Rock Action Records.[3]

The A.V. Club opined, "In spite of its loaded name, Oops goes a long way in presenting Cex as a serious artist—or at least a semi-serious one whose comical digressions add up to more than just nihilistic fancy. Beneath song titles like "Florida (Is Shaped Like A Big Droopy Dick For A Reason)" lay uncommonly emotive glitchscapes that mix up the brooding iciness of Autechre with the giddy brashness of Aphex Twin."[4]

Pitchfork referred to the album as "relatively standard IDM fare" and not "particularly riveting".[2] The review noted that the beats on the album were "top notch" but that "Far too much of this record is simply boring. It's a testament to Cex's inherent talent that the most uninteresting and typical aspects of Oops, I Did It Again are also the ones that seem the most forced."[2]
