6. Good Will Continue (Remixes), 2017

“Amazing album, nice mix of funk, hip hop, little taste of rock, and some dub added in! GRiZ to the rescue with all these feel good vibes~ What an Album!”

5. Ride Waves, 2019

“Griz can do no wrong. Beautiful album with awesome collaborations. Sounds everyone will like. He’s so diverse and this album highlights that. Album cover is beautiful too.”

4. Rebel Era, 2013

“I felt the mixing was very well done throughout the entire album. Each of the elements, while they could take you by surprise, didn’t feel out of place. You’ll see saxophones, blues guitar solos, auto tune, hip hop vocals, and dubstep all come together in one album that still makes you feel like the same artist composes each track. The volume was controlled quite well too. Typically with these sort of electronic+(insert genre here) you’d get, say, dubstep with a little blues in the background, or vice versa. This album did a good job of making them harmonize in a way that didn’t allow one to overpower the other but let them flow organically.”

3. Say It Loud, 2015

“Amazing album all around! Been listening to GRiZ since ‘End of the World Party’ so impressed by the quality production in every song, really brings together so many different elements flawlessly. It’s Fun, Funky, its Epic. It’s the future funk!”

2. Mad Liberation  (2012)

“One of the best albums of it’s kind. I’ve been overdosing on it since I got it. I still like Rebel Era a little better but it’s hard to choose. Awesome and I love it”

1. Good Will Prevail  (2016)

“Just as upbeat and amazing as the other Albums. GRiZ Keep making future funkadelic jazzy beats. I love them and it sounds like everyone who makes the music with you enjoys making with you too! Best Song in my opinion Good Times Roll feat. Big Gigantic. If you don’t feel good after listening to that, then I don’t know what will.”
