-TURNTABLELAB
2. “LA’s Free the Robots has slowly been crafting one of the more unique sounds to come out of the West Coast beat scene, pairing futuristic basslines that could fit into a dubstep set with chunky, dusty beats that sound straight out of the mid-’80s.”
-XLR8R
3. “comes at you with soft-melodic, yet heart-thumping edgy beats.”
