It's really nice music, to be sure. But when listening to it, I thought, why does he get to be on NPR? There are people here who've made things at least as nice as this, and they're not on NPR. Is it because this guy has an agent? Is it because he used to be with Death Cab for Cutie? Just kinda bummed that a guy's first foray into ambient music gets plugged on NPR just 'cause he has a name for himself while others here or on Soundcloud are doing equally nice stuff.
