: twanging guitars and lo-fi synth rhythms are craftily set up there to function as the background for pensive songwriting by Mark Ge, a singer-songwriter from USA who just published his debut issue on No-Source. Indeed, he does have barefaced flirt with unpolished sort of folk and electronic-inflected indie music. However, there are a pair of exceptions either - Road seems to be the only example which is more concretely treated inside the walls of recording studio. Peace and Noise showcases its sympathy toward murky type of songwriting. Mark Ge`s aesthetics can be compared with the likes of Gazebo In A Lake, The Home Stretch, Stereo Moon and at the times even the aesthetics of Bradford Cox. In a nutshell, I think Ge is a talented musician, however, I am very excited about his following albums in the foreseeable future.
