Style and influences

His musical style has been described by Michael Cragg of The Guardian as "maximal, strangely textured day-glo dance music."[12] Andriana Albert of The Line of Best Fit wrote: "One of the fascinating aspects of Banks' music is his ability to elicit melodies out of heavy-handed synth, sparse techno beats and trembling glistens of effects, all of which create the most strangely fantastic pop ballads."[13]
