Ideas Of Beginnings vinyl

Having made his name in kosmische stargazers Emeralds, Mark McGuire has further carved out a niche for himself as a purveyor of gently reflective instrumental guitar music that's invariably redolent of a certain melancholia and autumnal reflection. If anything, he's simplified his style over the years whilst also steering clear of the cliches his other six-stringers fall prey to, and 'Ideas Of Beginnings' is even more acoustic-based than anything he's produced thus far, looping his delicate filigree to create warm and enveloping soundscapes of considerable beauty and delicacy. Less a hippyish mission statement than a simple description of the record's contents, "Ideas Of Beginnings' is every bit an fresh audial new dawn.
