Auckland sound architect Totems has been doing things on his own terms for a long time. His Kerosene Comic Book imprint provided a refuge for wayward beatmakers a decade ago (check the recently reissued compilations via Melb imprint Legacy Records). More recently, he has come back into the spotlight with a double A-side via MONGO SKATO's Buzzy Point, the first in a string of releases due this year. Reuben goes fever pitch for 80 minutes with a journey through all of his touchstones.
