Thanks to the people at Sofar Sounds for putting this video together of the time I performed a live set for them in a secret studio apartment location in London.
The track I play is called ‘Small Good Thing’ which is a live transposition of a track on my ‘Lost Hours’ EP for Black Acre. A live version of the track also got pressed to vinyl for my ‘Memotone EP’ on Raised By Records (which sadly is no more…. R.I.P)
I am flying out to Berlin on Friday to play at Club Gretchen for the Project:Mooncirle x Black Acre showcase event. Should be a good one! For more information about the night and others playing, visit: HERE
Written and produced by Aspects & Memotone (I. Merchant & W. Yates). Vocals recorded and mixed by Rola at Khameleon Sound Bristol. Taken from the forthcoming Aspects album due 2013.
William Yates records under the name Memotone, and his debut album, I Sleep.At Waking is out on Black Acre in October. With influences as varied as John Cage, Ryuichi Sakamoto, DJ Shadow and J-Dilla, as well as having lived in a 400 year old haunted cottage in the middle of nowhere, its fair to say that a lot of different ideas feed into his music. He spoke to KMag about gathering music, putting it together and how he builds his sound.
