"Charles, is a straight baller. His laid back attitude kept the interview experience thoughtful, calm, and introspective. He asked the right questions, and patiently absorbed a chorus of response from our end of the speakerphone. When the call ended he expertly pruned our conversation into coherence and integrated it into his own flowering meditation on our work. His writing was potent, unique, and witty-- a rare and beautiful creature in the music review space." - Dan, Harsh Armadillo
