His latest offering is Filters, a 10-song album full of vibrant colors and shapes that just happen to be in the form of sound. Toeing the line of experimental, Filters stays rooted in pop songwriting, although its highly patterned output runs the spectrum between smooth, squelchy, pleasing, and moody.
