"Up next on my producer-to-watch (listen?) list is the phenomenally talented, feel-good, sunshine-ridden sounds of Elijah Colburn. The South Carolina native, who used to produce under the name Mourning Sickness, serves up some serious groove-oriented solar-funk tracks like they were pancakes at IHOP- all day...

Some collaborations, some individual work, but 100% soul inspired.” MishkaNYC Bloglin, "Soul'd Out with Elijah Colburn" Fall 2012
