Aufregendes Jahr in dem sich viele Trends der 00er Jahre kondensieren. Indie-Pop und Retro-Sounds, Dubstep und Freak Folk. Das sind besonders an der Spitze auch alles Alben, die mich seit erscheinen begleiten. Nur "Donuts" hat sich hier noch einmal durch eine tiefere Beschäftigung mit Sampling in den letzten Jahren enorm entwickelt ist sicherlich mein meistgespieltes Album der letzten 2-3 Jahre.
