Zoyd begat?

On initial hearing, I am quite impressed too. He sounds like he used to, only, umm, "sharper" (?) -- but without losing his famous "blurriness".
His stuff always sounds to me like he somehow drained the sounds out of beat-up old 8-tracks from the mid-1970's. Crinkly faded old California coke-rock riffs, only the music didn't really sound like that back then.
I detect a certain "fake nostalgia" approach to music these days -- Stereolab may have been the pioneers ("a past vision of a future that never really happened.") Sun Araw and Ariel Pink fit in there too.

Why thank you sir!
Just listening to the new ACR album, it's rather good (first listen).
