Sanddollars EP

WHY?

Brittle acoustic loops and dusty hip-hop beats meet hyper-literate, neurotic poetry. A skeletal, lo-fi bridge between indie rock and abstract rap.

Find on Amazon

It's like if a neurotic poet found a sampler and an acoustic guitar in a dumpster.

A nervous, intellectual intimacy that feels like reading someone's private, rhythmic diary.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the acoustic guitar loop on the title track anchors Yoni's most vulnerable vocal performance.
The sudden shift into a more aggressive, rhythmic cadence during the brief runtime of Vice Principal.
The haunting, skeletal piano melody that closes out Mutant John, leaving a lingering sense of unresolved tension.
