Yeah, the deafult response set is totally awesome, really makes me want to see
him live (wonder why he isn't playing ATP?).
Anyway, apart from that I think he's wonderful. Qtio is a fucking great ep,
especially the first track, and claro while weak in places has some great
tracks on it. There's plenty of room for development in his sound and I for
one am looking forward to his future releases.
Just thinking about it, the first time I heard him was the two remixes he did
on Lackluster's R U Oho (sp?) EP. Surprised no-one has commented on them yet,
they are probably two of my favourite remix tracks.
