Memory Tapes - First Hills
non-album track from RRC003 7”
Hey Memory Tapes junkies, Dayve’s got a super Ltd to only 250 copies 7” with a non album track out now from Rise Record Club right now. His new full length, Grace/Confusion is also out and available in the US from insound. He is a perpetual fountain of new material that never ceases to run dry, and fortunately for us its always of the highest caliber.
Memory Tapes - Follow Me
Premiere from new Grace/Confusion LP
A return to the longer (& better) song formats of Seek Magic, with only six tracks spanning 39min. On first listen I’m diggin more than Player Piano, but I’m barely in. Officially out December 4th.
Memory Tapes - Grace/Confusion LP pre-orders are up from insound here or Rough Trade for UK. First 500 LPs on coke bottle green vinyl, and 100 random LPs come with a unique Polaroid.
Woot.
P.S. Recent new mix from Dayve up on SnDcLd here

Memory Tapes - Walk Me Home 2
Download this year’s Halloween minimix here
Dayve Hawk aka Memory Tapes sure does like making free minimixes, especially at Halloween, and this year’s a sequel to his first Walk Me Home mix from 2009.
Also the new full length, Grace/Confusion LP is up for pre-order. The first 500 are on coke bottle green vinyl, and 100 of those come with a unique Polaroid. You’ll also get a free download of The Black Reel, yet another minimix, this one clocking in at 22min.

Yet another mix from Memory Tapes chock full of “unreleased, original stuff: tracks from GRACE/CONFUSION, excerpts from “Black Reel” and some other b-sides and remix work.”
Memory Tapes - Grace / Confusion LP is out 10/4 from Carpark, and pre-orders are up here. Interesting to see the released track list includes only 6 songs while clocked at 39min. Very nice to see Dayve Hawk is clearly not catering to drone radio airtime.

Memory Tapes - Shelia
From new LP Grace/Confusion, out 12/4 on Carpark
Found some gold in my inbox just now, new Memory Tapes full length is apparently due out 12/4 on Carpark. Seems like Player Piano just barely came out, but I guess that was almost a year ago. Much as I enjoyed their sophomore LP, the real juicy stuff is on Seek Magic, which has since gotten repressed cause its so damn sexxy good. That’s you’re cue to order a copy on vinyl.
New track sounds fantastic, a deep long player. Can’t ever get enough Memory Tapes

Air France - It Feels Good To Be Around You (Memory Tapes version)
Goodbye for now. Who knows, maybe we’ll see you again in another shape. After all, we’re people that never stop dreaming.
Henrik and Joel
Gothenburg
Air France’s No Way Down LP from Sincerely Yours is still possibly one of my all time favorite records, and I’m grateful I snatched up a copy back in the day.
Underrated, under appreciated.
This is not the news I wanted to see this morning. Simply heartbreaking. Fingers crossed for April Fools? (do they know what that is in Sweden?)
Modcast #95: Memory Tapes - Slaughtered
(left click above to save)
This week’s Modcast is a little different from usual. Davye Hawk, otherwise known as Memory Tapes, has lovingly created a 23-minute mix of all new, all original Memory Tapes music.
Here’s what the man himself had to say about the mix, titled ‘Slaughtered’.
“I find I listen to mixtapes more than albums a lot of the time, so I wanted to make a new record in the form of a mixtape instead of a single or EP etc. It’s all new, original Memory Tapes stuff just put together in the form of an extended mix. I thought the Modcast would be a cool way to make it available to people quickly and for free.”
Player Piano, Memory Tapes’ second studio album, is out now on Something In Construction in Australia/NZ and Carpark everywhere else.

Virgin of the Birds - The Serpent Plume
Rad video with found footage from 1909. Reminds me of the very similarly done Memory Tapes video for Today is Our Life
Track from Dear Furies, a free digital EP from Virgin of the Birds. The Serpent Plume can be downloaded as a 320kps MP3 here
Named after a poor English translation of a Salvador Dali painting, Virgin of the Birds has written, recorded and performed in San Francisco, Austin, and, presently, Seattle.
Footage from La Creación de la Serpentine (La Creación de la Serpentina), directed Segundo de Chomón, Pathé Frères (1909). This film is in the Public Domain.

Memory Tapes - Wait In The Dark
New Memory Tapes…really need I say more? His debut 2009 LP Seek Magic was definitely in my top 3 albums of that year. No doubt. He is insanely talented, and I cannot wait for this to hit the scene. If you’re confused, go listen to Seek Magic right now; just download it, you can;t buy the vinyl no mores. As in drop your shit and go…and keep working/doing whatever you were doing + listening to Seek Magic. Stay tuned for Player Piano set to hit the intertube shelves July 5th worldwide by Carpark/SIC/Inertia.
