is 2010 album Off Duty was described by Allmusic writer Gregory Heaney as
"pulsing, Krautrock-influenced retro-futuristic lo-fi." Jon Pareles, writing
for The New York Times, described Sun Araw's music as "a happy jungle of
electronic repetition and live playing." Loops and echoes reconfigured reggae,
funk and Afrobeat in dizzying ways; the music cackled and hopped, ready to
trip up dancers or just get trippy in decidedly 21st-century grooves."
His style has been characterized as experimental, containing "sampled loops,
echoed vocals, bursting bass, and random moments." His music has also been
described as "neo-dub" and "psych-rock."
