"Psychedelic. Balearic. Straight up pop. Call it what you want, this is memorable music." keytarsandviolins

"Impressive elastic strands of plaited sense associations; extract of flashy disco, pastoral swoon and computer exploration." threethousand

"A total cottage industry—one guy recording, pressing and releasing his own music—and it’s an example of how to do it right from the bottom up." Stylus

"A manic journey of sounds, bound by neither genre nor era." Beat

"Cuts-and-pastes big samples with delicately rendered instrumentation. A party jam. Four stars." Pitchfork

Watched a whole season of Dawson's Creek when stuck in a flat in Graz for a week. His father died while trying to eat ice cream of the floor of his truck while driving home at night. No matter how hard I try, I will never get that week of my life back.

Yo, this is the cover for my new mixtape, which contains the most recent mixes and mashups by yours truly, it's free, therefore, awesome, even more if you like what's in it. Keep that crying dawson mode going. Greetings go out to the land down under from Mexico City.
