Reviews

“The editorial voice, lean model, and creative thinking around distribution bear comparisons to a pioneer in the film world.”
Rolling Stone

“Imaginative, architectural and delirious visualizations. More than an imitation of a drug trip, the world presented is a spiritual one. Chants fill the headphones. Snakes slither. And no amount of text we can draft can dig deep enough into the actual experience.”
Cool Hunting

“The experience unfolded effortlessly. It felt right, like all great art”
