Christ's earlier involvement in BOC is probably creates the buzz that attracts a lot of attention to his work. But he takes the sound a much further into experiemental territory. Psychedelia soundscapes with lo-fi/digital hybrid textures, and those familiar signature triplet organ riffs to boot. Makes me wonder who coined them first, he or the other two guys from Boards? A great example of Benbecula's roster of artistry. Kudos!
