Daylight with Moon Tapes - An Interview


Ao ouvir o EP homônimo dos holandeses do Moon Tapes a impressão que temos é que existe sim como fugir do estigma maldoso que foi criado para o termo indie rock atualmente.

Os caras pegaram Stone Roses e Adorable e fundiram ambos, fazendo um pegajoso e delicioso indie rock ao melhor estilo 90´s e o mais bacana, não soa datado de forma alguma, pelo contrário, o frescor esta mais vivo do que nunca.

Dê play imediatamente e instantaneamente foi vai aumentar.

Feels like being in a dream in which you are the best version of yourself.

We mix melancholy lyrics and riffs with a dreamy sound and we like chorus pedals and reverb a lot!


Q: Tell us about the process of recording the songs?
We recorded for 5 days straight, we had a great producer in Jurriaan JJ Sielcken, who understood perfectly what we wanted to sound like. We really grew alot closer to eachother. It felt really great to be in the studio for twelve hours a day and to completely lose ourselves in the music.

Q: Any parting words?
Serene and still we’ll wait a while.
