Christopher Willits

The subtleties of minimal house and glitchy laptronica can be lost on most people, but those tempted to explore that world would do well to start with Christopher Willits, for there is much beauty amidst his insect-like ticks and pops. Sounding like the Polyphonic Spree covered by the Postal Service, Surf Boundaries is haunting yet euphoric, particularly on the lovely "Medium Blue," where the electronics are perfectly balanced against acoustic guitar and a Spree-esque chorus.
