Piano soon followed, then guitar, bass<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and a full range of percussive instruments. By the time he was in high school, Mark was writing music on multiple instruments, producing his work as well as local bands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While studying digital media in college, Mark\u2019s years of experimentation in the studio alchemized into fruition as Somatoast. The earliest performances of Somatoast could be found in Austin\u2019s eclectic co-op parties and electronic music events. Mark became deeply inspired by Austin\u2019s ever-evolving live music culture, circus performance artists, and the psychedelic renaissance he recognized was happening on a global scale.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Creation is Creation<\/strong>, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">out February 25th on Gravitas Recordings,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is a philosophical inquiry regarding the alchemy of creativity.
