I recommended another song by him in Squeaky Strings yesterday. But. I love him and his stuff is very piano driven and he's talented as fuck.
Aaaand now I'm going to shut up. Half of these I'm probably going to rec on SqueakyStrings at some point, but w/e. Let me know if you find anything you like, kay? <3
