Aug 21, 2017What Photay achieves on Onism is the contrast between full auditory saturation and expanding silence, brought to life by brilliant production.
-
Aug 21, 2017To listen to Photay, meanwhile, is to be continually taken aback by new sounds and sensations, and to marvel at how artfully Shornstein dissolves them together.
-
Nov 7, 2017Taken together, for its somewhat lofty inspirations and complex construction, Onism is above all a fun listen, full of discovery, whimsy, and musicality. And it's got a good beat.
-
Aug 21, 2017The record’s best songs are imbued with real emotional weight.
-
Aug 21, 2017Sure, he packed the songs pretty heavily with stuff, maybe partially because nowadays there’s just so much stuff you can do. But he also seems to know when to let it be.
-
Sep 1, 2017Tension comes through not only in the album’s titles--‘Storms’, ‘Screens’ and ‘Eco Friend’--but in the tone of the tracks, where at one moment a song delves deep into an urgent, synthetic cadence, and then expands into an ambient sense of the vast beauty of the physical world.
