Reformat’s sound has been compared to an obsolete games console recalling chiptunes sung by their factory siblings before they were separated and packaged for sale. Others have described it as the sound of a 56k modem dialling directly into their psyche.
Their debut album, The Singularity, is also soundtrack to an interactive adventure inspired by 1980s sci-fi films and computer games.
