I/O\I is one of the most original and creative artists we’ve heard in a while.

Since when did experimental music become something to fear? As soon as I heard Stafford Davis’ I/O\I, I was afraid to ever give the “genre” a chance again. Maybe I just don’t get it, but I don’t like this music… This CD let me down a lot.

It’s a wonderful album of 26 chapters… A lot of work and love has gone into this CD, and I definitely recommend it.

Wonderfully rhythmic and distorted avant pop. Most of these songs aren't exactly songs in the strictest sense. But they sound really cool, and taken as a whole this album has more than a few interesting things to say. For adventurous listeners on the prowl for something truly new.

Something new with each listen… It’s a great album!

I love I/O\I!  My station specializes in unusual and experimental music and this fits right in.  Thanks so much for the great work!

In the end, casual listeners of pop music may ask what the point of listening to experimental music IS. For many the purpose of experimenting with music is to find nontraditional forms that excite the ear in new ways, a goal that despite its display of good musical technique I/O\I most certainly fails to achieve.

An ever-changing sonic landscape… This is experimental music as it should be – full of playful exploration and curiosity.
    ~ Fan

I/O\I is anything but traditional… I love it when artists push the boundaries and help us open our minds to things we may not of thought to listen to.  I think this is a CD that needs to be played from beginning to end to understand the continuity.

I really dig experimental, cacophonous music that makes use of wall-of-sound techniques to overwhelm listeners with waves of dissonance. That’s why I/O\I (a.k.a. Stafford Davis) first appealed to me. But I discovered that there isn’t just sonic chaos to be found on his self-titled album. In fact, that’s a very small portion of the album. It also derives a lot of its appeal from softer, more ambient songs and other tracks that are strange derivations of more traditional musical styles. All in all, I/O\I is less of a musical endeavor than it is modern art exhibit of sound that is stored on CD.

I/O\I is a multi-dimensional project tapping into different musical directions embracing a psychedelic experience somewhere between epilepsy and ecstasy.
    ~ XtremeMusic.org

I/O\I is the project of musician Stafford Davis, one I’d describe as “everything and the kitchen sink.” What I mean by that is this is basically not only multi-genre, but everything goes, a real open and intimate viewpoint into the life of a composer whose influences seem to be between the two poles of singer/songwriter and ardent pop experimentalist...  Overall definitely the vision of one rather iconoclastic musician, who’s not only brave enough to release something so uncompromising, but to allow negative opinions of such to be part of his press sheet. I’m not sure what sort of audience an album like this has.
