I first saw Cex circa 2002, in a little room in the Union Hall in Missoula, MT. At the time he was making beats on his laptop, and rapping over them. I saw him perform at least two more times over the next 5 years or so, in two different cities. I hadn't heard of anything new from him in a long time, and thought maybe he'd quit making music. How glad I was to recently find several years worth of releases on Bandcamp! His sound has continued to evolve, and I remain a fan. Keep it up Rjyan. D Rok
