this is incredible! just heard it on 6 music. loving every noise

Just found you via the "art pop" genre tag. Dude. You're on some shit. I love this. It's like Dirty Projectors meets St. Vincent meets Beach Boys meets an acid trip - Dé Von

As heard on All Songs Considered: "The title track of Oakland-based Makeunder's new EP jumps brilliantly with polyrhythms, time shifts and an octave-spanning, soulful falsetto from singer Hamilton Ulmer that's reminiscent of the Dirty Projectors."

"'What A Lovely Bandsaw!' describes the weekend where my family held an estate sale to part with my father's tools & belongings, so my mother could pay off her liens and put the home on the market. We watched hundreds of acquaintances and strangers rummage through every box, corner and cabinet, while we struggled to put a price on things my mother never thought she'd have to sell: finished works of art, handmade furniture, gouges, chisels, saws, a menagerie of power tools. Some we hardly understood how to value, others were important set pieces in my childhood memories. 

My parents never felt like they belonged in Texas and my father likened their mortgage to a prison sentence. They would have been happy to abandon the house and get the hell out of San Antonio for good. In the end, however, it was impossible not to feel overwhelmed as the home quickly disappeared, piece by piece, before we even had a chance to come to terms with everything we'd lost." 

- Makeunder's Hamilton Ulmer
