Post on Front Porch Musings
"With every new listen, [Marco] Mahler’s creativity expands a little more, and you almost feel the need to put this kid in his own category. It’s a very interesting album and ... I can assure you’ll want to spin this album more than once." - Front Porch Musings

Popdose and Cover Lay Down reviews
Review on Popdose - "Marco Mahler's latest record, Laptop Campfire Speed, is one that might not have existed a decade ago. And that would have been a damn shame." more
Review on Cover Lay Down - "...the light touch on production here results in a sound both decidedly post-millennial and oddly delicate..." more

Review on Thieves by Tuesday
"Marco Mahler should not be addled with being categorized as purely folk, his music goes beyond the musical boundaries of austere beauty. It can even be life-changing." More

Review on FensePost
Marco Mahler makes dreamy minimalist folk-pop out of Portland. His sophomore release, Laptop Campfire Speed, is the sort of album you’d expect from someone who is brilliantly skilled yet mired by late night insomnia. Soft and introspective, the album has ... read more

Review on This Is Book's Music
Marco Mahler is an independent artist who creates eclectic pop music with a diverse range of influences that may be unimportant in the big picture, but are contributing factors in how he comes off in his music. Laptop Campfire Speed (self-released) couldn’t be a more appropriate title for an album that ...read more

New reviews
Some new reviews of the new album that I like very much:
- NBT Independent Music
"Imagine sitting, as passenger, behind your beloved as they hurtle down the highway on their seemingly ancient motorbike. You have a worn hand held camera and you are making movies of all that slides past. This is the soundtrack to that surreal blur ..." read more
- whisperinandhollerin
"Three years on from his marvellous Design In Quick Rotation, the overall tone of Marco Mahler's highly recommended new record is more playful and self assured than his debut ..." read more
- choir croak out them goodies
"Laptop Campfire Speed is a welcome return for Mahler, whose debut was one of my favorites of 2007, whose records are like Multi-Panel's “Night Stranded Drummers” on constant repeat, and whose next release will hopefully require something less than a three-year timetable ..." read more

Review on My Old Kentucky Blog
I have a friend we’ll call Ken, since that’s his real name and he never reads MOKB. Anyway, several years back, while high as a Georgia pine, Ken blew several fingers off his left hand performing an ill-conceived stunt with a short-fused M-80.
Now, with July 4th right around the corner, I could stop there. I’d have a perfectly good PSA, the judge would be satisfied and I would be one step closer to having that unfortunate Easter Sunday incident expunged from my record. But I have a reason for telling you this... read more
