For 10 years Chad has been producing work in his bedroom, playing all the instruments, and has amassed hundreds of songs. Flemish Eye compiled 19 of these - including three new ones - as Chad's first CD release proper: Infiniheart. Now picked up by Sub Pop, Infiniheart is about to get the exposure it deserves - and a vinyl 12" release.

Strains of The Flaming Lips, Neil Young, Modest Mouse and Beck run through this record, but these beautifully crafted songs really transcend any comparison; defined by a unique vision and lifted by Chad's incandescent vocals, these songs are moving, heartfelt, and strangely danceable.

Infiniheart is packaged in a hand-assembled 3-colour digipak decorated with drawings by Chad.
