Combining the pained, lo-fi disjointedness of early Smog, the weird isolated love songs of Daniel Johnston, and hints of the pseudo-hip-hop and sarcasm of 90’s Beck, it’s hard to tell whether or not to take Bobee seriously. His simple beats that call to mind a crappy 80s Roland drum machine barely mix with acoustic guitars and keyboards (that often clash uncomfortably) and lovestruck vocals that are not always in key. Yet there is something extremely charming in his unique brand of sad, lo-fi isolation and bedroom-tape weirdness that will worm its way into your chest long before you can begin to put your finger on what the hell it is… Download all of his albums for free on Bandcamp.
