CUICA!!!!!!!!!!!! happy new year GM

Love the heavier sound. Festive yet introspective. Is that a cassette deck sound at the end signifying a wrap for the year? You have a great command of melody that always serves the song. Great song structures, guitars and vocals. But what I respect most is your ability to craft cohesive songs (arrangements). Not just fragments or ideas which is difficult enough under weekly constraints. It's been a pleasure listening and learning from your work this year.  Happy new year and best wishes for 2019 - Mike

I’d pay to see that live.

Thanks for the words ... I've struggled with arrangement for a long time by overthinking it and sometimes over preparing, so it means a lot to hear that!

Holy crap, what a closer! 

I've really enjoyed your work this year and this is no exception.  I can fully see the Mikememo full live band opening up for Tortoise.  Those guitar riffs are A+ delicious.  Shoutouts to the proud few who incorporate vocals!

See you next time WB FAM FOREVA

That is a genius idea - love it!  That's a wrap!  *click*

Certainly going out on a high note (heh)!  Cassette "stop" is a great coda.

This is a super fun way to end the year.  Love the upbeat energy.  And yeah the cassette stop ending is awesome.  Happy New Year!

Really digging the energy you brought for the occasion. See ya in 2020.
