Rust Magazine's Album of the Year, 2011 "[Exceptionalism is] a glassy, funky work of permuting textures, one through which the delicacy of craftsmanship is realized." - Wax Poetics "LA producer Remy LBO is staying two steps ahead of us...If Los Angeles is the land of a thousand drums pumping at a hundred beats per minute, Remy LBO is the outsider, lost somewhere out in Joshua Tree, equipped only with a beat machine and a few keyboards." - Impose Magazine

"With Umpqua Fire, Remy LBO shows that melodies don’t have to be so complex, and that artists can add to their respective repertoires through the subtraction of instruments." - Marcus Moore

"[Remy] LBO tends to alternate between woozy, warped Wu-Tang-style synthesizer lines, clipped, electro-influenced riffs, and jazzy piano excursions." - allmusic.com

"All in all a tasteful blending of dub, jazz, and electronica with tight production. Probably worth diggin' in those sofa cushions for the full-length..." - Less MTV More TMV

Ah, the good ol' days. Armed with an MPC, some samples, and a healthy dose of exhaustion, I made a full length album (now unavailable), after work in someone else's studio. These are some of my favorite cuts off the full length.
