“It’s unabashedly pop and I can totally imagine Napoleon Dynamite throwing some sweet, sweet moves to this little number, which is a very good thing.” – Noisey

“Hettinger’s contemporary spin on ‘80s synth-pop melodies are complemented by breathy vocals and a bouncy, sticky hook.” – Wondering Sound

“Drenched in nostalgic, dramatic 80’s atmosphere and a foggy dreaminess, Feels Like The First Time is incredibly catchy and addictive.” – I Heart Moosiq

“…hooky, textural synth-pop…” – Complex

“…retro synth-pop bounce…” – Pigeons & Planes

“Sonically cradling you with deep and honest ‘80s emotions, new NYC electro-pop band Memoryy creates an ‘Electric City’ of addictive retro synth masterpieces.” – Kick Kick Snare

Memoryy is the alias of Brooklyn-based Shaun Hettinger. Seamlessly bringing together ‘80s-inspired synths with elements of modern production, his synth-pop lives in a distinct realm between the past & present. Memoryy will release his new EP, Young Oblivion, on September 30th.

Having previously unveiled Young Oblivion EP cut “Feels Like The First Time,” Memoryy has now dropped the hilariously tongue-in-cheek accompanying video, directed by Ryan Wick (featuring both prom & ten-year high school reunion scenes, no less). The “Feels Like The First Time” video premiered with Noisey.

Consisting of five sophisticated & memorable electro-pop gems that flirt with afro-pop, funk, moody mid-tempo, straight dancefloor & even a soul ballad, the Young Oblivion EP is the result of eight months of hard work & perseverance. At the helm of the EP’s production (having produced four of the five tracks) is co-producer John Jagos, also known as renowned chillwave artist Brothertiger. NYC producers & remixers extraordinaire The Golden Pony also inject their brand of dancefloor-ready electro-pop to the EP, and the record’s personnel is rounded out by indie-pop songbird Frances Cone (backing vocals), Josh Dobson (guitars), Dan Morosi (drums), Israel Heller (violin), Lizzy Rich (backing vocals) & Rose Lovell (backing vocals).
