Here are some fun facts about Bloo Burds:

Since his early days of recording raps on cassette tapes, Bloo Burds has always had a knack for genre-blending and musical experimentation. Within the confines of his bedroom, he explores synth-heavy psychedelic soundscapes, reflecting an eclectic array of influences. Inspired by The Beatles, The Beach Boys, and Animal Collective, his music emphasizes introspective lyricism, whimsical melodies, and harmony-driven vocal arrangements. His discography encompasses a wide variety of genres, including hip hop, baroque pop, synthpop, and psychedelia.
