but: "he blends experimental techno statements". I feel you're being too hard on him.

I don't know him. Can't say I have much opinion about him or his music either. Not bad music at all, I heard some I quite liked but I'd say others have done what he does a lot better.

Utterly posed.
This is techno today.
quite. there are people who are in it for the what they think the lifestyle represents, and there are people who like making music (and many other viewpoints too).

i've seen some IG links here on subsekt that are equally cringey and posed, showing off a kind of Poundshop-Sellout aesthetic.

The music is not bad. Well produced.

Regarding the pics.. I'd rather see bottles of alcohol than cake. Thats the real measure. Hes still got a soul.

Let him be at least he causes a discussion.

Hes got a hiphop kind of vibe, the way he shows his self.


Apart from that i like his musica.

Monkey see, monkey do.

I find it weird that the OP posts a gear related topic in the production section and people go on about everything bar the equipment.

That Energiser looks like a mad synth, anyone ever use one?

As with many of these kinds of things hard to find any proper demos of it

So hard to judge based by the crap on youtube but doesn't really seem that special. Still looks fun but I wouldn't pay more than like $500 for one judging by that.

He's good friends with a hip hop artist called 'Yung Lean'.

Agreed, you can probably get lots of equally capable mono synths for much less.
