Everyone in Bloomington knows and loves Rob Funkhouser. He’s everyone’s favorite Hawaiian-shirt wearing party-attending, philosophy-spewing college student. Most people haven’t heard his music yet though. Rob is an incredible percussionist and composer and this tape showcases both of these talents. Side A is an epic synth-based piece that could easily be the new soundtrack to chasing replicants through future Los Angeles. Side B is a haunting marimba composition recorded in an empty high school gymnasium. Both sides show that Rob is extremely talented and is deserving of much more recognition. – El Tule
