5.0 out of 5 stars A quantum leap from Tory y Moi January 10, 2012
Format:Audio CD
(Taken from my blog at http://ryanestabrooks.com)

With this record, Chazwick Bundick moved more from his spacey sampling that borrowed heavily from hip-hop and veered into territory that reminds me more of 60's/70's era solo songwriter work. There is much less sampling going on with this record (if any at all) and Chazwick's songwriting really starts to lead the charge.

The first thing I noticed was his new confidence in live instruments. The bass is very prominent on this record, taking center stage on many songs and providing not only the foundation but leading the charge. On top of that, you have swirling keyboards, sometimes striking piercing chords, other times decaying on and on, looping the listener into a certain haze.

Along with the instrumentation, he seems to have a new confidence in his vocals. Harmonies dot the landscape everywhere you turn and for me, was one of the most interesting parts of this work. They cascade up and down, chant, veer from each other, combine in unison. You can tell he really put a lot of work and love into experimenting with them, fleshing them out, building a house with just his voice. He uses that to prop up his songwriting, which has grown more secure and organic.

It's upbeat, it's funky, it grooves and it be playing in your head for days.

5.0 out of 5 stars Groove Trance Shoe-gazer Jazz Pop April 13, 2013

..Tori Y Moi is all of those genres and more. I started off with their Causes Of This album and keep expanding out. This album is a little more pop than that one but not in a bad way. It does not disappoint!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I love Toro Y Moi March 9, 2013
Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is music for me. It is so hard to describe the low-key, low shoulders, nerd brillance of these guys. I love them and is like African American suburban music with all animosity and aggression sucked out of it. Much of mixed raced background, multiraccial groups of friends, and maybe skateboards. I love Toro Y Moi.

I found this artist via Pandora and I'm glad I purchased the album. One of the best records I've heard in a while. Looking forward to listening to more of his catalog.

This is just a fantastic CD. The songs really flow, and Still Sound is probably the best thing I've ever heard.
