Wait For It: Memory Tapes Player Piano


Wait In The Dark by Memory Tapes

Dayve Hawk's records as Memory Tapes from his home studio in New Jersey and is set to release  Player Piano (on Carpark in N. America), his follow up to last years acclaimed Seek Magic. Hawk had a new concept in mind for this album saying it would be “keyboard-based psychedelic girl group songs, a sort of Motownsuicide note”. Where modern beats were prominent on Seek Magic, it will be all about melody on Player Piano. The album's title is a little misleading considering Hawk chooses not to use any sequencing software but plays everything himself. We may have to wait till summer to hear the latest album but we're not completely in the dark thanks to the first single "Wait in the Dark" which you should be listening to now. Go!
