The time for the new Memory Tapes album is here, hooray. I haven’t heard much yet, but what I’ve heard I like. “Green Knight” (which my brain confuses with “Green Light” and then “Green Lantern” in a heartbeat), is available for free download, on his blog. Hooray full quality! I will get back to you with more details on these sweet sweet tunes, once I order the album. In the meantime, be sure to check out Weird Tapes as well.

I feel as if I’ve been going on endlessly about Weird Tapes, but clearly I don’t mind enough to not write this. I am in love with this track “Party Trash”, and what’s not to love after all? Perhaps it’s because it’s the end of the weekend, and what better way is there to get over your hangover than to get right back to dancing?

So I have this bad habit, of liking a popular song by an artist, and then failing to ever check out any of their other music, for the preemptive fear that they will be just another one-hit-wonder. Well Peter Bjorn and John, with you I am guilty of this, and you have proved me to be an idiot. They did a fabulous remix of Miike Snow (better than the original I dare say), and Weird Tapes makes a remix appearence as well.

Memory Tapes, the combination of Memory Cassette and Weird Tapes (though I would have also accepted Weird Cassette) will be coming out with a full length album in September, but for now we get to enjoy the awesome single Bicycle, and I’ve thrown in some Memory Cassette just for fun. I can’t stop listening to this stuff, perfectly quirky electro-pop summer jams that will be sure to please.
