Our debut compilation recently recieved a lovely shout out in FACT Mag's Best Of Bandcamp series, wherein FACT scribe Miles Bowe describes the tape as "a showcase of jittery, off-kilter takes on classic dance sounds, blurring the line perfectly between fun and experimentalism." We couldn't agree more! Peep FACT's full Best of Bandcamp post here.
