This guy is a blip in my English understanding of how a person; a person without our knobby UK priviliged spoon-fed background can show us how it should be done.

This guy can produce a track that is able to take me back to my halcyon teenage Modern Soul days and nights.

Meme is a Brazilian with no real understanding of our scene, as such, but his productions - particularly his bass-lines and piano work - twang every UK Soul Boys retro heart-strings.

I wouldn't dream of teaching you lads to suck eggs but for those of you whom haven't heard Meme's reworking of 'Say You're Gonna Stay' and the like, seek him out.

(Pressed on a 7" in '81 it'd be commanding a £1000 all day)

His inherent understanding of all things UK Retro-Modern, without the background we were given, is extraordinary.
