"...And of course, we have the valedictorian, a young genius named Gejius who might be accused of playing IDM by the girl from Minneapolis who came in here the other day hustling for a gig. But he's far too soulful and inspired for any particular genre label, using his laptop like a saxophone satellite dish tuned to the jump jazz of another star. Prance, girls."
Here's what the PSU Vanguard has to say about the album, Black Eyes:
"Drum machines, electronic clickity-clacks and other computer-generated instruments all combine to form a kind of brooding, mellow soundtrack."
Here's what A Prospering City has to say about the album, Black Eyes:
"...What Gejius has here is an album pretty ahead of the times and one most musicians wish they could create."
"Alum of Boston’s famed Berklee College of Music, electronic music artist Gejius (“Jee-jus,” in case you wondered) crafts soulful IDM compositions which draw on some usual suspects – Aphex Twin, DJ Shadow – but also post-rock, contemporary classical and Japanime. Check his “Makkuro Kurosuke,” a superb cut which sounds like RJD2 remixing the Go! Team."
"...His experimental compositions sound like the rival school to the Go! Team’s snippet-snatching pep squad. From old ’60s recordings to sonic bits from “really good Kung Fu movies” (including the classic Shogun’s Ninja ), Dishner’s carving out a niche for himself with a hybrid of original orchestration and reprocessed sounds." - Nilina Mason-Campbell
Here's what Local Cut has to say about "Cray-oh-la-la":
"If this is an indication of Gejius’ new direction (so early in his career), I hope that new direction is available not for made-to-order, but instead rushed order. It’s clear to hear that further praise will soon be coming his way once “Cray-oh-la-la” makes its way to the DJs’ decks and the dance club soundsystems. It’s unclear what all the revelers will do in their “mad fits of inspiration,” only that when this comes on they will have said fits. Consider yourself warned. The results could be more colorful than a box of 96 crayons." - Nilina Mason-Campbell
"Gejius (pronounced like Jesus, ya know...that guy in the white robes and long hair) sounds like the birthchild of Aphex Twin, DJ Shadow and U.N.K.L.E. Or if you're not familiar with those artists...take a Radiohead album's melody and smash it together with some Oakenfold."

Thanks for adding me. ¶ The outcome of the ideological struggle is not yet determined, so no one can afford to be just a spectator. Join the global conversation; it empowers us all. Find your place in the movement, if you haven't already; you'll feel stronger as part of the community. ¶ Love all people, but not all ideas; don't confuse love with sleep. But people hear only what they want, so facts alone won't wake them; we also need analysis, insight, wisdom, inspiration. ¶ This world's evils have a common root: Bullies, liars, thieves, & murderers — particularly those in public office — believe we're all separate, motivated only by self-interest, by greed & fear. They want us to share that belief; they use it to justify themselves, to manipulate us, to shape the world's political & economic systems, perpetuating war & poverty. ¶ But you & I have found something better inside ourselves & our friends. It's in everyone, even bomber pilots, if we can just wake them; we're all one flesh & blood. Let's spread that vision, for until we do our other advances will be minor & temporary. ¶ Question authority. Keep fighting, loving, hoping, singing. Hand in hand, we may still be able to heal this world. ¶ Let's see if this slogan will spread: CLOSE GITMO BY BASTILLE DAY. PASS IT ON. — Love, Eric
