Pop Archeology Transmission

About Me

Ambient Pop for a non-existant demographic since 2007...
Some reviews coming in:
This kind of literate, intelligent but heartfelt pop doesn't come down the pike very often but when it does it resonates forever after.... I can't get enough of this stuff.
Masterful.
Marco Rossi -Shindig Magazine
"The Red Button Loves Pop Archeology Transmission! Great Stuff! This is an extraordinarily good album. ... The singing and playing are top notch. "She Blew It Like A Kiss" is very sophisticated and beautiful in its unexpected changes, very strong writing. This is one terrifically impressive record. People need to hear it!"
Seth Swirsky - The Red Button
Get the Pop Archeology Transmission album "It Is What It Is". What it is...is great!
Fine songwriting, singing and production throughout, and quite original in it's approach..... Very enjoyable listen from beginning to end!
Rick Gallego - Cloud Eleven
This is unique, pure and perfect, Brit-inspired, 'Sunday Afternoon Pop'! The breezy, lush, hypnotic-at-times arrangements are all positively wonderful, the hushed vocals reach heavenly heights, and even the purest pop fanatics won't mind the influx of some (very tasty) synth injections! Simply wonderful, wondeful, wonderful!"Kool Kat review
