About: Kavit Sumud
Profile:If you're interested in having me write about one of your tracks, I review: dark synth-pop, future garage, nu-disco, witch house, lean heavily on remixes and I generally favour artists outside the United States. What I'd like to review more of: Arab and Southeast Asian electronica/pop and recession pop (songs which discuss the economic climate). I don't generally review sentimental, happy love songs (sorry, I don't connect with them).

Every Day I Ran
