/Post-psychedelic electronica, Baroque pop, New Weird America, Poptronica, Free folk/
Comment: Behind this militant pseudonym hides himself Jack Budd, a resident from Richmond, Virginia, from the city which is well-knowingly an important location regarding the experimental rock/post-rock scene all around the world. In true, through this project Budd is not directly related to the post-rock movement of his home city, having engaged spot to direct it upon the two recent traditions - psychedelic/and post-psychedelic folk sound a la - surprise, surprise! - Animal Collective, and one baroque pop instance a la Sufjan Stevens (those wistfully chiming brass sets/orchestrations in the best sense), and nowadays poptronica (which is however strongly influenced by those two aforementioned artists). Approximately 10 years ago when Animal Collective started off its doings such kind of sound used to be pure avant-garde, now it is changed into a clear-cut pop case - into a pleasant pop case, though.
