Memory Tapes: Player Piano
Posted on July 18th, 2011 by
It seems like just yesterday I was listening to Memory Tapes’ debut album, Seek Magic, and being blown away. To my surprise last month a follow-up album appeared.
While not immediately as addictive as his previous foray into dreampop soundscapes, Player Piano is quite good. There are more vocals, the songs are shorter and more focused. The melodies are slightly more repetitive. The in-home studio sound and aural bursts of color and imagination are all here. The subtly inventive sonic tinkering begs you to listen many times over.
