Hammy’s Album Recommendations from the Artist
“Michigan” and “Seven Swans” for similar albums to this style.
“Age of Adz” and “Ascension” for his more electronic albums.
“Enjoy Your Rabbit” for a more glitchy, experimental electronic album, non-lyrical.
“Run Rabbit Run” for an Avant Garde Orchestral album.
