It would be easy to start bracketing imagineIAM together with contemporary acts that he enjoys like Dirty Projectors, Daedelus and Animal Collective in some kind of nouveau-bohemian movement - and without a doubt, he does share with those bands a kind of second-generation psychedelic appreciation of the possibilities of music to bypass the niceties of day-to-day communication, creep into the brain and start rewriting the mind's operating system. But his work is really a different proposition, without a hint of hippie excess: imagineIAM is all about the leanest, barest, most stripped-down approach, about taking the simplest components of beat, bass and voice and constructing from them precision-tooled devices for exploring extreme possibilities of the human spirit. But for all his drive and intensity, imagineIAM has a grin on his face as he does this. He has fun, and you will too if you let his beats into your head. Though it comes from a very different approach, his music has evolved into something that works in the same way as the best electronic dance, irresistibly urging the body move and making you feel better about everything as it does so.

In his own words: "My music enters this dimension pretty much smack-dab in the the middle of all music 'styles', since it is so exact in its presence, and it simply comes to me just as definite as the sun simply shines... I throw in some extras to make it more sassy, crunk, ridiculous, holy'n'profane, sacred and shut up... with ninja blood sparkling deep electric it dares and blooms forth beyond the known edge creating a new world celebration... unconquerablly creative and classy..." And you know what? He's right.
