Melomaniac

Derw is a Daoist Druid [and former Padawan]. Betrayed by his mentor, spurned by his community and routinely ignored by almost everyone else, he is on a mission to protect this planet from further mindless destruction. Here is what one writer wrote:
'Derw stands as an oak; a steadfast bastion of inimitable authenticity, in a rising wave of automated simulacra. With a sound that rushes like a cool wind from the mountains, the misty-eyed gazers of dreampop won’t know what’s hit them. Unequivocally invested in promoting the beauty of nature, it’s unironic that such punchy jingles have a flair of “blink and you’ll miss it".
