June 2009

Toro Y Moi's first release, the "Blessa" single, introduced the world to his brand of introspective, atmospheric pop music, and the b-side, "109," hinted at a side of his music having more in common with Ariel Pink than any of <i>Causers</i>' reference points. Around the same time he was experimenting with music software and sampling, Bundick was recording a slew of short and sweet lo-fi tracks. Now, after two albums, an EP, loads of tour dates, and a move to Berkeley, CA, these songs still mean a lot to him, and they're collected on the retrospective <i>June 2009</i>.
