Hometapes has been a label in transience for the past few years but they never fail to deliver a brand of unblemished and unaffected pop that is so saccharine that it rots our teeth with its sweet joy. Whether it's from Slaraffenland, The Caribbean, or in this case, Megafaun, it's all sugar and spice and everything nice.
"Impressions of the Past" continues the grand Hometapes tradition with one awesome caveat: stop-motion photography!
Thousands of miles, thousands of images. On tour with their new album "Gather, Form & Fly", Megafaun was captured, piece by piece, by the photographer Tim Lytvinenko. Part-documentary, part-sense memory, Tim's images took on a life of their own as he traveled across the west with the band, the music, the landscape, and everything in between. He set his first magical trademark sequences to the album's epic and beautiful "Impressions of the Past" --- and a video was born. Further shaped across the plains, the mountains, the coast, and the desert of North America, the video became a daily experience for the band on tour.
