Music Video: Memory Tapes - "Trance Sisters"

Dayve Hawk aka Memory Tapes has a new music video for his track "Trance Sisters" up for your viewing pleasure. The cut is taken from the chillwave muscian's latest studio album, Player Piano, which dropped back in the summer of 2011 via Carpark Records. The visual and a bit about the story behind it can be found below.

Vera Todorova, a young Berlin-based film-maker, was given a wildly ambitious brief: to remake the George Lucas cult sci-fi debut THX1138 for not much more than the cost of a couple of flights to Berlin and back. She rose to the task, amazingly, and delivered a memorably great narrative video that starts like some contemporary newsreel footage of civil disobedience and ends up…well, shan’t spoil it, but “demented, sci-fi mind control” is not a phrase we use often. But we will. And it fits here.
