Zaguito Just a classic. A lot of freedom and happiness is drawn in the music of this album.

It has helped me a lot during tough mornings and sleepy evenings.

I love it completely. Favorite track: Something In Your Hair.

spacecat I was thrilled when I found out about Locust Toybox, having been a fan of Firth's animated work for a while, and this album soothed me back then and still does. Extremely beautiful, hard to pick just one favorite track: couldn't live without ICOTFBIWSITW, Ready Now?, Strange Combination, Something In Your Hair and Through My Head At Night. Favorite track: I Climbed Over The Fence But I Was Still In The World.

Viðrar Ský This is a really good mashup of samples. They jumble in a imperfect way, which makes them feel special then if it were to be perfect. This is pretty impressive for a first album (at least in my opinion). Favorite track: The Recipe.

Rainz Bowz This has always been one of my favorite albums from David.

about

Dead Wasps is a collection of some of the early songs I made mostly from about 2001-2003. I don't even remember making most of these. I sampled everything I could find and put them together with Sound Forge and the Various EJAY software I had trial versions of.

about

Locust Toybox Leeds, UK

My name is David Firth, I make all sorts of things like cartoons and pictures and music. This is my main solo music project. I start up different projects all the time, but this is one I keep coming back to. It's a mixture of real instruments, samples and synth. I try and keep it as organic sounding as possible. I don't know if you can dance to Locust Toybox, but you're welcome to try. ... more

wtf man, Stegosaurus Trap is just so good. easily my favorite project from David's and my favorite album from him too. from my thoughts this album really has a certain tone to it, reminds me of being out in the desert. (also the album cover is 10/10 instant classic) Polka
