Noah tape’s Green EP has an interesting interplay between the organic and the electronic, creating a haunting sort of indie rock that is wholly different from anything else that we have ever heard. Pin me has a deliberate beat that is interspersed through its four-plus minutes, while Renegade cheers things up with a slightly quicker arrangement. Hints of Republica and Garbage can be gleaned, while one can hear late-seventies/early-eighties rock (The Cars) at the periphery. Waltz with me (featuring Axl Otl) ends the Green EP with an exclamation point; Noah’s tape provides some infectious tunes to listeners.
Rating: 9.0/10
