Reviews:
“…From San Francisco, America’s capital for Cultural Revolution, comes Karmacoda. The group brings to electronica and terminally dark trip hop a cloudy/sunny California cool, at once laid back and romantic, earthy and glamorous. Like the city, their songs have a breezy airiness and Boho funkiness.” – Music Dish
“…Extremely well written and perfectly produced tracks… tracks (that) will shake up the trip hop world.” - Triphop.hu
“… If we are not able to fly, Karmacoda teaches us how to simulate that. The splendor is up there, and Karmacoda is a direct highway toward it.” - Tripofagia
“Karmacoda puts out a straight up, cool vibe. Heather Pierce has a beautiful voice which she uses to compliment B’s haunting vocals.” – South of Mainstream
“These guys are fantastic. Watch them soar…” - Amazon.com
