Comprised of singer Marie Lang and producer Alex Coco, Boston-based duo mar|co is off to quite a flying start with their highly sedative debut single entitled “Bridges”. Like many new acts we come across, we've little in the way of specific information about them, but we’re quite confident that their sound here has already developed a brilliant foundation for the two to work later upon. Lang’s vocals are undeniably the first discussion point on the track here, as they’re immersive to listeners from all ends of their self-described "future pop" spectrum. Her lyricism is one pinpointing tolerance and distress simultaneously, and Coco’s production engulfs the themes with his slow yet subtly buoyant cadence. Their contributions each coalesce into an incredibly solid first step together, and we'd love much to hear subsequent efforts off the back of it.
