Over the next several years, Tobin released three albums. ''[[Bricolage (album)|Bricolage]]'', released in 1997, was the culmination of two projects Tobin had started after his debut album earlier that year. His third album ''[[Permutation (Amon Tobin album)|Permutation]]'' was released in 1998. In the late 1990s, sample-based music was becoming more popular with a wide range of emerging and developing genres, but Tobin himself was still largely unknown. Tobin's style of music was not seen as definitively belonging to one genre or another.<ref name="solipsisticnation"/>{{rp|at=00:18:40}} The critics that commented on ''Bricolage'' and ''Permutation'' gave them positive reviews and they are often mentioned, by later reviewers and interviewers, as classic albums of the time. Pitchfork acclaimed the use of [[jazz]] instrument samples, comparing him to famous composers [[Quincy Jones]] and [[Miles Davis]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/22604-amon-tobin-bricolage |title=Amon Tobin:Bricolage |access-date=2008-10-02 |publisher=[[Pitchfork Media]] |date=December 31, 1999 |author=Schreiber, Ryan |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080212120836/http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/22604-bricolage |archive-date=February 12, 2008}}</ref> In a 1999 review, they awarded ''Bricolage'' a very rare 10/10 and said that it was "one of the most inventive records of the decade."<ref name=pitchfork_foam>{{cite web |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20000816165817/http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/c/cujo/adventures-in-foam.shtml |archive-date=August 16, 2000 |url=http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/16393-cujo-adventures-in-foam |title=Cujo: Adventures in Foam |access-date=2008-09-27 |publisher=[[Pitchfork Media]] |date=December 31, 1999 |author=Schreiber, Ryan}}</ref>
