“The way that Metaform blends live instrumentation with samples
and captures so many moods with his music, each track here
provides a new experience.”

“Shoulders feels like a hand-crafted mixtape of a true vinyl junkie
music nerd, and it's that omnivorous sense of discovery that makes
the album feel consistently fresh.”

Michael Tedder, CMJ
“Look no further than to the erratic, digger-framed freak-outs in “As
if in a Dream,” or to the pastiche of choral samples and splintering
psyche of “Barbie Doll” for this guy's own stamp on a genre with which he is quite familiar.”

Dominic Umile, REMIX
“Metaform vividly illustrates Giants as a colorful hodgepodge of
samples and live instrumentation all of which is then smelted into
trip-hop beats and hissing strings—all tempos and riddims that are
downright cool struttin’.”
