Toro Y Moi is the alias of South Carolina native Chaz Bundick, whose 2010 debut album '
Causers Of This' established him as one of the US' most promising electronic pop artist over night. Bundick's avant-garde pop is in equal measure inspired by the abstract hip-hop of Flying Lotus as by the ultra-compressed filter-funk of French house artists like Daft Punk, lending a unique stylistic breadth to his highly polished productions. With his second album, '
Underneath The Pine', Bundick gave his sound a more 1960s-inspired songwriting direction.
