First up we’ve got an exciting project stepping into the spotlight for the first time.  MEMORIALS, formed by Verity Susman and Matthew Simms, have been making music for a few years now, but most of their output has revolved around commissioned work; soundtracks to indie films is their M.O.  This time around, MEMORIALS has been focused on themselves, announcing their debut studio album Memorial Waterslides, out October 4th.  “This is the first music we’ve written for ourselves”, the duo wrote in their monthly newsletter, “not commissioned for film or art galleries, and it’s been great to discover where this takes us - spiralling [sic] down the waterslide, it seems”.  For us, the listeners, this means we get the gift of a new single, “Lamplighter”, joining WGSU’s rotation today.  If this isn’t enough to satisfy you, I recommend with fair warning entering the rabbit hole that is MEMORIALS’ catalogue of content.  Outside of several soundtrack releases (including Music for the Film: Tramps!, a delight), the duo paired with a DJ collective from East Kent, UK, called City Wall to release a series of hour-long DJ sets called “Memorial Hour”.  The show’s archives can be found on the band’s website and consists of selections from the wide range of influences MEMORIALS calls their own.
