he's got quite an interesting catalog.

he was part of a group called Opus Akoben that was signed to an indie label in France.

Here's an EP he has called "The New Grease".
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/kokayi

And his last album called "Mass Instructions".

He's got some other appearances and etc. swarming around but his catalog is pretty extensive.
