Comment:
by the download numbers at Archive.org pEACEFANg`s EP at the moment is being the most popular personal issue having ever been issued on No-Source, an American qualitative sonic brand. Lots of less lucid or more dream-filled subtleties can be found from here. Behind it is an American, A. Fischer, conjuring up on an acoustic guitar and Casio CT-310 synthesiser to getting a  change smoothly from one phase to another, from halcyon guitar-based pastels to beatific synthesised soaring to emotive glockenspiel interventions, thirdly all of that seems to be seamlessly intertwined while meeting each other. It may even remind of Slowdive's Pygmalion in its most quiet moments. Is it an example of artsy mood music? Indeed, it is. Predominantly it is slowed-down and buried yet it does not turn into a lethargic one. By its content it is a greatly uplifting and tranquil mixed release exploring the valences of mellow electronica/ambient, folk and indie.
