“Memories is an album that draws inspiration from early points in my life. As you look back on memories and recall the way life used to be, it’s often informed by all the things you’ve learned since then. Memories really was a way for me to channel those experiences and see them in a new light.” – Vipid
All instruments in ‘Memories’ were played by Jared Simmons, ‘Vista’ is one of those tracks where his skills incorporating live instruments with electronic production really shine. The guitar instrumentation creates a soothing simplicity that is audio enjoyment.
