Recorded in some basement with a good amount flowing.... a trip down memorylane of the place where one too many had been had, one too many times. A tribute of sorts. Pub music at it's finest/worst. 
With the one that goes by many many many names, and also a few different faces; DJ Stussylove, Pissflaps, the stomach, Conky & Milky C a.o.

@memotone
@patienceimpatience

Bristol multi-instrumentalist, producer and nature freak Will Yates offers a new record from his Memotone alias, an expansive, hypothetical revue titled How Was Your Life?

Launching from terrains recognizable to fans of Will’s extensive, restless discography, How Was Your Life? packs up his penchant for baroque druid folk, homespun electronics and weightless woodwinds and explodes them into glistening, fractal star dust.

Instigated by the purchase of an antiquated Y2K era guitar synthesizer, the record was produced over the first half of 2022, in a large part the result of in-studio improvisation. Where Will’s previous releases under various guises have often been conceived by conceptual frameworks, HWYL? was carved by equipment that offered both possibilities and parameters that Will relished and explored to the nth degree. The Roland GR33 not only provided sublime guitar sounds but also empowered the guitar to convincingly mimic fretless bass, tabla and a vast percussive array, also summoning an artillery of uniquely outre atmospheres over the course of the record. The resulting concoction sounds familiar yet subtly, unshakeably otherworldly, shaping up as perhaps the most honed, energized and beatific Memotone album to date.

Paradise Drips gently lifts off with wobbly guitar, randomized sequences and unidentifiable percussive elements situating us somewhere in an unearthly realm, before Open World zaps the serotonin receptors and gushes with ecstatic warmth, it’s quietly insistent soft disco shuffle and levitational fretless driving towards a totally blissed and very soft “drop”. Forest Zone sees Memotone deep in the green, with a loose, propulsive groove and dancing flutes stumbling into a medieval ritual in the clearing halfway through, and Glow In The Dark deftly bounces between spacey ambience and an undulating no wave vamp. Carved By The Moon is a delightfully melted classical cut, while Canteen Sandwich offers the record’s most explicitly nod to modernity in the form of a nimble drum workout with samurai synths and melodic percussion that heaves towards a genuine peak. Lonehead immediately backs right off, viscerally melancholic clarinet and bubbling fx making for the records most hefty introspective moment, before Walking Backwards simmers all the way down on an wistful arpeggio, rooting back in earthly reality with charmed rhythms and jazzy tunings. Catharsis complete, Memotone is onto the next incarnation.

Will Yates has been making music as Memotone since 2010, releasing music on labels like Black Acre, Disktopia and Accidental Meetings, also releasing music as O.G. Jigg and Half Nelson. He’s worked as a producer, session musician and live performer on a broad spectrum of projects, and recently provided source sounds that made up Batu’s “Opal” on Timedance.

HOW WAS YOUR LIFE?

An opening & warm-up mix by @kaltepizza_kaltesterne for the event and concert series DIE FINTE at "Schrippe Hawaii" Berlin on 12.07.2024

Obscure Obsession

Kalte Pizza - Warm-up mix live at DIE FINTE / Schrippe Hawaii

The Italoconnection remix delivers a high-energy rework that fuses vintage italo disco with sleek, modern electro. Driving basslines and shimmering synths give it a hypnotic edge, made for late night club sets and festival soundscapes. Equal parts retro and futuristic, it’s a track that keeps the dancefloor moving while nodding to the golden age of synth-driven disco.

Garçon Gaston was born on the coast of the Ukranian-Azov sea and is now living at Berlin. His eclectic approach to setting up storytelling developed through time, combining listening and danceable elements.

He has been collecting and playing music for more than a decade. Mystic, dark and sometimes funny (meant with a wink), his record collection ranges from Slacid, Leftfield-Disco, Kraut, and Wave to Electro and Trance.

For the last five years, he is also running the underground event series "Obscure Obsession" in Berlin. Trying to connect music-lovers with hidden corners of the scene while showcasing his selection alongside some of the nastiest "cable cutters" of the underground. "Crooked Jack", "Wicked Wave", and "Dirty Disco" guaranteed!
