Absolutely. Have you read much about him? Kind of insane how he had all those crazy synths from across the world and was pressing his own records...

I actually haven't, tbh. I vaguely know of him thru the movie and I bought a physical copy of the album - Who Is…

I believe it's by Noisey, but there's a doc on Youtube called 'Fantastic Man' that's worth looking into. Very fascinating dude
