MEMORY TAPES is a one man band based in New Jersey. He’s been dropping bombs (as memory cassette and weird tapes) on Gorilla vs Bear through 2008 to huge acclaim and massive blog proliferation. His sound is nostalgic both aesthetically and emotionally – so there is little surprise when comparisons drift to outfits such as Cocteau Twins, My Bloody Valentine, New Order and Boards of Canada. More established pop references come through as well with echoes of classic Motown and girl groups. Ever prolific, MEMORY TAPES intends to make two albums a year, promising that the next one will a psychedelic girl group record.
