started listening to the newest one, Big Sun. I really like Pipornithology Pt 2. was vaguely hoping Mario would be a riff on the SMB 1-1 theme, but oh well. Thanks for posting about this!

It works really well as music for SimCity-type game. If you listen to the SimCity4 soundtrack, I feel like there was a lot of Reich influence (I have no musical education so I can't speak to any concrete things), so it makes sense in that regard.

The bird tracks, where he's following the birdsong with piano, make me think that he could do a great procedurally-generated soundtrack for a rhythm-based platformer or something. (Kind of like Bit-Trip Runner.)
