Why he might be annoying:

    He makes music that's lo-fi and unusual.
    He cares about what other people think of him.
    He usually gets booed at live shows because he makes music that he never intended to do live.
    As a matter of fact, most of the music he makes is not available to fans.
    He is liked by Pitchfork.com, as 'Round and Round' was their 2010 track of the year.
    He has made songs which include drum sounds via his mouth, and at times, his armpits.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is credited as a 'forefather' to the music subgenre chillwave.
    He was the first outside artist signed to Animal Collective's label after they listened to his music.
    Since 1996, he has recorded over 500 songs using non-digital equipment.
    He is a graduate of the California Institute of the Arts' School of Art.
    His favorite band is The Cure.
    In addition to being a musician, he draws semi-abstract pictures.
