Reema has recorded 10 new very personal and heart-breaking songs for this album. To be sure ………… best to order and listen for yourself.

Memories Fade To Tape is an arrangement of 10 new songs written and performed by British singer-songwriter Reema. The record, which tells stories from her personal life and Reema, was recorded in a very intimate atmosphere: live to tape in the studio during 3 sessions, partly recorded directly to 2-track Telefunken master tape. 

Memories Fade to Tape is the second release by UK singer/songwriter and artist Reema on LowSwing Records, following up her successful collaboration with producer Guy Sternberg on The LowSwing Sessions from 2017 which was highly praised and featured in many "Best of 2017" lists by blogs and magazines.

Recorded completely computer-free over three magical sessions, Reema delivers a deeply personal record, mastering her signature neo-folk approach to tell tales of beautiful and sometimes painful memories of her life. The themes range between self-acceptance, love and loss.

The album's dark, captivating sound is warm yet direct as Reema's ethereal, emotional vocals and guitar playing is accompanied by small ensembles most noticeably a classical wind quintet arranged by Guy Sternberg. This extremely delicate setting is captured using tape and has stayed analogue all the way to the vinyl itself.

The artwork for the vinyl, based on a childhood photo of Reema, was hand drawn, painted and collaged by Reema herself with the same hand-made love that went into the music. The swirls, paisleys and patterns reflect the delicate arrangements and the hand-written text keeps the human element going right down to the credits.

Singer/songwriter Reema was raised in London by her artist and photographer mum. She grew up against a background of creativity, drawing and painting, and found her passion for songwriting at the age of seven. Reema has written songs featured on the movie Love Rosie and on the European soundtrack of Twilight: Eclipse, and has supported great bands like The Kaiser Chiefs, Imagine Dragons and Biffy Clyro.

LowSwing Records is a record label dedicated to the love of music on the analogue format. LowSwing recordings are recorded and mixed to analogue tape, and then cut directly to vinyl. The heart of the label is LowSwing Recording Studio in Berlin, where owner Guy Sternberg records, mixes and produces exciting new artists with the production values of yesteryear.
