SunDog
Sundog. He’s one of those
one man musical enigmas that beavers away in private and creates music that
leaves you feeling more in the dark about him than you were before you heard
a single note ... Sundog builds strange beasts out of synths, effects and
traditional instruments to give us eight tracks of mystery and
contradiction. Plus the odd solid gold electro funk meltdown."
