Subliminal rolling beats greet the listener in the unique single as we’re transported into a place that transcends time and space. It’s here that we’ll find dj poolboi, continuing to reinvent himself with each rhythmic element that passes, drawing in the new and releasing the old with a mix of unmistakable talent and creativity.
Speaking of the single, dj poolboi tells us that ‘take me far away’ is “One of the first tracks I wrote for the new album “stay just a little while longer” almost 2 years ago. I wanted to expand my sound into new areas of emotion and genre, and experiment with different instruments to capture a feeling of frenetic dissociation I began to feel at the time of its writing. I wrote it out of a need to begin a new era in my music and my life”
“With the new wave of lo-fi hip-hop setting a relaxed soundtrack across the world, there are not many artists that do it quite as rapturously as Austin, Texas-based artist dj poolboi.” –EARMILK
“He goes by the name dj poolboi and something that’s quite paradoxical is the somewhat tongue-in-cheek name, compared to the depth and the emotion conveyed within his craft.” –Stereofox
